23 Analyzing Graphs of Quadratic Functions The Way the Ball Bounces: Statement Cards Cut apart each statement on the dotted lines. Place each card in the column that best describes the throw represented in the graph. Two sets of cards have been provided. Between 0.5 seconds and 0.75 seconds, the tennis ball descended 1 foot. At 0.25 second and 0.75 second, the tennis ball is seven feet above the ground. The tennis ball reaches its maximum height 0.5 second after being thrown. The tennis ball reached a maximum height of 13 feet. Of the three tennis balls, it took the longest time to land. The tennis ball was thrown from a height of six feet. Between 0.5 seconds and 0.75 seconds, the tennis ball descended 2 feet. The tennis ball was above 4 feet for about 1.5 seconds. The tennis ball was above 4 feet for about 1 second. Of the three tennis balls, it took the shortest amount of time to reach its maximum. The tennis ball reached the same height from which it was thrown when 0.75 seconds had passed. Between 0.5 seconds and 0.75 seconds, the tennis ball ascended 1 foot. Between 0.5 seconds and 0.75 seconds, the tennis ball descended 1 foot.
