Samantha is playing basketball. She releases the ball from her hands at a height of 6 feet from the ground. The ball reaches a height of 20 feet from the ground after traveling a horizontal distance of 12 feet and then falls through the rim of the basket, which is at a height of 10 feet from the ground.

Which graph represents the path of the ball from Samantha's hands to the basket?

Answer 1

Answer:

D   correct

The initial value is 6 since that is where it leaves her hands.

The maximum value is 20 for the arc at 12 distance so the coordinate of the maximum is (12,20)  The ball stops at a y height of 10 ft

A  has an initial value of 8  ( wrong)

B has and ending value of 14  (wrong)

C  has a maximum of (12,18)  wrong

D   correct
