Here, we want to determine the function type that would model the height of a football from the time it was kicked to the time it lands on the ground
The way to go about this is to notice the kind of shape or trajectory the kicked football will take.
The shape it will take is non-linear. The shape it will take would be a parabolic curve. These parabolic curve models a quadratic equation and not a linear function. Hence we can conclude that based on the kind of path in which the ball traces, we can conclude that the function that results from its trajectory would not be a linear kind of equation or representation.
I put in y = 2-x. I believe that was the equation you asked a table for. If it is another equation please tell me or just download or look up Desmos. Desmos helps create graphs and tables. I hope this helps. Have a great rest of your day!
For it to be an integer, whole, or natural number, it would have to be a whole number. Since it can be written as a repeating decimal (.6666666...) it is not irrational either.
