4x Ricky recorded himself throwing a football to analyze the position as it moved through the air. He came up with the function H(d)=-(1)/(16)d^2+(3)/(2)d+2 to represent the height of football in yards when it was d yards away from him. What does the constant term, 2, represent in this scenario? A The ball reached a maximum height of 2 yards. B The ball was 2 yards high when he released the throw. C It took 2 seconds for the ball to reach the ground. D The ball landed 2 yards away from him.

The function given is a quadratic function in the form of $H(d)=-\frac {1}{16}d^{2}+\frac {3}{2}d+2$. In this function, the constant term is 2. In the context of this problem, the constant term represents the initial height of the football when it was released. Therefore, the football was 2 yards high when Ricky released the throw.
