Comment

It's actually a deceleration. You should get a negative answer because the ball is slowing down.

Givens

vi = 8.09 m/s

vf = 5.87 m/s

t = 9.17

Formula

a = (vf  - vi) /t                     Substitute the givens into the formula

Solution

a = (5.87 - 8.09)/9.17

Answer

a = - 2.22 m/s^2
