You and some friends went to a haunted house on Halloween. The mummy scared one friend so much that she jumped into the air! The equation h = -4t² + 2t models her jump where h is her jump's height in feet t seconds after the mummy scares her. When did she reach her maximum height?

• 0.1 seconds

• 0.25 seconds

• 0.50 seconds

• 1 second

• 2 seconds
