* This is the graph of a (nonlinear, linear or constant) function.
Answer:
This is the graph of a nonlinear equation. In this case is the graph of a quadratic equation of the form:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y(x)=ax^2+bx+c \\ where \\ a\in R,b\in R,c\in R \end{gathered}[/tex]

Michael Jordan's hang time is ___ second(s).
Answer:
From the graph, we can see that the domain of the function is approximately:
[tex]D\colon0\le t\le0.9[/tex]
So, we can conclude that Michael Jordan's hang time is 0.9 seconds
-------------------------------------------------
* The maximum height is about ___ meter(s).
Answer:
From the graph, we can see that the vertex of the function is located approximately at:
[tex]y=\frac{0.5+0.4}{2}=0.45[/tex]
So, we can conclude, that The maximum height is about 0.45 meters
---------------------------------------------
* For t between t - 0.5 and t - 1. the height is (increasing, decreasing or constant).
Answer:
From the graph we can see that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} From\colon \\ t=0.5 \\ to \\ t=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]
The height is decreasing.
