Question

Tina was observing the changing heights of a ball as it bounced over time. She graphed the function on this coordinate grid to show f(x), the height of the dropped ball, in feet, after its xth bounce.
Part A: What does the value of f(3) represent in the given context?

A.
After 4 bounces the height of the ball is 3 feet.

B.
After 3 bounces the height of the ball is 4 feet.

C.
After 4 bounces the height of the ball is 4 feet.

D.
After 3 bounces the height of the ball is 3 feet.


Part B: Tina said that a possible range for the given function is y > 0. Based on the given scenario, do you agree or disagree?

A.
I disagree; because the graph has an asymptote at y = 0, the height cannot be 0.

B.
I disagree; although the graph has an asymptote at y = 0, the ball will stop bouncing and have a height of 0.

C.
I agree; although the graph has an asymptote at y = 0, the ball will stop bouncing and have a height of 0.

D.
I agree; because the graph has an asymptote at y = 0, the height cannot be 0.
