To determine the initial height of the ball and the time interval before it hits the ground, we can analyze the provided values in the table.
From the table:
- The initial height \(h(0)\) is 150. Therefore, the initial height of the ball is 150.
- The height values decrease over time until we see a negative height at \(t = 6\), where \(h(6) = -26.4\). This indicates that the ball hits the ground sometime before \(t = 6\) seconds.
Looking at the values:
- At \(t = 4\), \(h(4) = 71.6\): the ball is still above ground.
- At \(t = 5\), \(h(5) = 27.5\): the ball is still above ground.
- At \(t = 6\), \(h(6) = -26.4\): the ball has gone below ground.
Since the height is positive at \(t = 5\) and negative at \(t = 6\), the ball must have hit the ground between \(5\) and \(6\) seconds.
Thus, the correct selection is:
**initial height = 150; hits the ground between 5 and 6 seconds.**

To determine which table shows a function that is decreasing over the interval \((-2, 0)\), we need to look at the values of \(f(x)\) for \(x \in (-2, 0)\) in each of the provided tables.
1. **First Table:**
- \(x: -2, -1, 0, 1\)
- \(f(x): 0, -5, 0, 5\)
From \(-2\) to \(-1\): \(f(-2) = 0\) and \(f(-1) = -5\) (decreases)
From \(-1\) to \(0\): \(f(-1) = -5\) and \(f(0) = 0\) (increases)
This table does not show a decreasing function over \((-2, 0)\).
2. **Second Table:**
- \(x: -2, 0, 2, 4\)
- \(f(x): -15, -5, -20, -30\)
The values for \((-2, 0)\) do not indicate any decrease since there’s only one point at \(x = -2\) (thus not a valid case for the interval).
3. **Third Table:**
- \(x: -3, -2, -1, 0\)
- \(f(x): 2, 0, -10, -24\)
From \(-2\) to \(-1\): \(f(-2) = 0\) and \(f(-1) = -10\) (decreases)
From \(-1\) to \(0\): \(f(-1) = -10\) and \(f(0) = -24\) (decreases)
The function in this table is decreasing over the entire interval \((-2, 0)\).
Based on this analysis, the correct table that shows a function decreasing over the interval \((-2, 0)\) is the **third table**.
1. **First Table:**
- \(x: -2, -1, 0, 1\)
- \(f(x): 0, -5, 0, 5\)

From \(-1\) to \(0\): \(f(-1) = -5\) and \(f(0) = 0\) (increases)
This table does not show a decreasing function over \((-2, 0)\).
2. **Second Table:**

Which interval contains a local maximum for this function?
Which interval contains a local minimum for this function?
Which interval contains a local maximum for this function?
Which interval contains a local minimum for this function?
GPT-4o mini
To determine intervals containing local maxima and minima from the given table, we need to analyze the behavior of the function \(f(x)\) based on the values provided.
Here are the values again for reference:
- \(x: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4\)
- \(f(x): -54, -20, -4, 0, -2, -4, 0, 16, 50\)
### Finding Local Maxima
A local maximum occurs at a point where the function changes from increasing to decreasing. This can generally be identified where the function value is higher than its neighboring points.
- **At \(x = -1\)**:
- \(f(-1) = 0\), and \(f(-2) = -4\) and \(f(0) = -2\).
- The function increases from \(f(-2)\) to \(f(-1)\) and then decreases from \(f(-1)\) to \(f(0)\).
- Therefore, \(x = -1\) is a local maximum.
From the table, the interval that contains this local maximum is \((-2, 0)\).
### Finding Local Minima
A local minimum occurs at a point where the function changes from decreasing to increasing, meaning the function value is lower than its neighboring points.
- **At \(x = 0\)**:
- \(f(0) = -2\), and \(f(-1) = 0\) and \(f(1) = -4\).
- The function decreases from \(f(-1)\) to \(f(0)\) and then increases from \(f(0)\) to \(f(1)\).
- Therefore, \(x = 0\) is a local minimum.
From the table, the interval that contains this local minimum is \((0, 1)\).
### Summary:
- **Local Maximum**: The interval \((-2, 0)\).
- **Local Minimum**: The interval \((0, 1)\).
Here are the values again for reference:
- \(x: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4\)
- \(f(x): -54, -20, -4, 0, -2, -4, 0, 16, 50\)

- **At \(x = -1\)**:
- \(f(-1) = 0\), and \(f(-2) = -4\) and \(f(0) = -2\).
- The function increases from \(f(-2)\) to \(f(-1)\) and then decreases from \(f(-1)\) to \(f(0)\).
- Therefore, \(x = -1\) is a local maximum.
From the table, the interval that contains this local maximum is \((-2, 0)\).
### Finding Local Minima

- **At \(x = 0\)**:
- \(f(0) = -2\), and \(f(-1) = 0\) and \(f(1) = -4\).

### Summary:
- **Local Maximum**: The interval \((-2, 0)\).
- **Local Minimum**: The interval \((0, 1)\).
- **Local Minimum**: The interval \((0, 1)\). choose another
GPT-4o mini
Let's reassess the given values to correctly identify the intervals that contain local minima.
Here are the values provided earlier:
- \(x: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4\)
- \(f(x): -54, -20, -4, 0, -2, -4, 0, 16, 50\)
### Finding Local Minimum Again
A local minimum occurs at a point where the function changes from decreasing to increasing.
1. **At \(x = -4\)** and **\(x = -3\)**:
- \(f(-4) = -54\) and \(f(-3) = -20\). It is increasing.
2. **At \(x = -2\)**:
- \(f(-2) = -4\) is lower than \(f(-3) = -20\) and \(f(-1) = 0\).
- Here, the function decreases from \(f(-3)\) to \(f(-2)\) and then increases from \(f(-2)\) to \(f(-1)\).
- Therefore, **this point does not result in a local minimum**.
3. **At \(x = 1\)**:
- \(f(1) = -4\), and \(f(0) = -2\), \(f(2) = 0\).
- The function decreases from \(f(0) = -2\) to \(f(1) = -4\) and increases from \(f(1) = -4\) to \(f(2) = 0\).
- Therefore, \(x = 1\) is a local minimum.
The interval that contains this local minimum is **\((1, 2)\)**.

for the second one here are the options -3,-2 -1,0 and 0,2
GPT-4o mini
Let’s clarify the location of the local minimum again, given the specific options you've provided for potential intervals.
**Given data:**
- \(x: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4\)
- \(f(x): -54, -20, -4, 0, -2, -4, 0, 16, 50\)
### Analyzing Local Minima
A local minimum occurs when the function decreases to a point and then increases.
1. **At \(x = -3\)**:
- \(f(-3) = -20\) is higher than \(f(-4) = -54\) (it is increasing).
2. **At \(x = -2\)**:
- \(f(-2) = -4\) is higher than \(f(-3) = -20\) and lower than \(f(-1) = 0\) (it reaches a peak, so it is not a minimum).
3. **At \(x = 0\)**:
- \(f(0) = -2\) is lower than \(f(-1) = 0\) and higher than \(f(1) = -4\). Here, it decreases from \(0\) to \(-2\) and then increases towards \(-4\) (not a local minimum).
4. **At \(x = 1\)**:
- \(f(1) = -4\) is lower than \(f(0) = -2\) and lower than \(f(2) = 0\) (a downward peak here, making this a local minimum).
### Choosing Intervals
