Multiple Choice

Solve.
-A baseball pitcher throws a baseball with an initial speed of 140 feet per second at an angle of 2020 ^ { \circ } to the horizontal. The ball leaves the pitcher's hand at a height of 5 feet. Find parametric equations that describe the motion of the ball as a function of time. How long is the ball in the air? When is the ball at its maximum height? What is the maximum height of the ball?
