Which statements correctly describe this function? A. The basketball reaches a maximum height of 7 feet. B. The basketball reaches a maximum height of 20 feet. C. The height of the ball at time 0 is –9 feet. D. The height of the ball at time 0 is 6 feet. E. The graph is symmetric about the line x = 5.5.

Answer 2

The correct statement about the function of basketball is as follows:

1. The basketball reaches a maximum height of 7 feet.
2. The height of the ball at time 0 is 6 feet.
3. The graph is symetric about the line  x=5.5.

What is a function?

A function is a relationship between two variables and in a function each value of x must have a value of y.

How to identify the statement?

By watching the graph carefully we can see that the highest point at which the graph lies is (5.5,7) and in this question y element describes the height.

When we put value of x equal to 0 we found the value of y equal to 6 which shows the height.

The graph is symetric about the line at x=5.5 because it is decreasing at a constant rate.
