Question

The height of a baseball in feet can be found by the equation -4.982 – 20t + 1000. How far has the

baseball traveled at t = 6?

Answer 1

875.018

Explanation:

To solve this, we must plug in 6 for our t value. So, we have the equation:

-4.982 - 20(6) + 1000

Following the rules of PEMDAS, we have:

-4.982 - 120 + 1000 = 875.018
