Y or the height is equal to zero at two points, at X=0 and X=22.94, Y would reach the maximum height half way between these two values of X, that is, X=11.47. 0=390X-17X^2, factoing X(390- 17X), X=0 or X=22.94. The maximum height for this parabolic trajectory is reached at X =22.94/2, that is X=11.47.
