At football practice the coach ends practice with sprint drills. Starting at the endzone, players sprint to the 10 yard line and back, the 25 yard line and back, and finally the 50 yard line and back. How much ground in yards is covered if all 11 players complete the drill.
one person will do 2(10) + 2(25) + 2(50) = ...
since there are 11 players, multiply that answer by 11
To calculate the total distance covered by all 11 players, we need to calculate the distance covered by each player in each segment and then add them all together.
Segment 1: Sprint from endzone to 10-yard line and back
Distance covered by 1 player = 10 yards (endzone to 10-yard line) + 10 yards (10-yard line back to endzone) = 20 yards
Total distance covered by all 11 players = 20 yards * 11 players = 220 yards
Segment 2: Sprint from endzone to 25-yard line and back
Distance covered by 1 player = 25 yards (endzone to 25-yard line) + 25 yards (25-yard line back to endzone) = 50 yards
Total distance covered by all 11 players = 50 yards * 11 players = 550 yards
Segment 3: Sprint from endzone to 50-yard line and back
Distance covered by 1 player = 50 yards (endzone to 50-yard line) + 50 yards (50-yard line back to endzone) = 100 yards
Total distance covered by all 11 players = 100 yards * 11 players = 1100 yards
Finally, we add up the distances covered in each segment:
220 yards + 550 yards + 1100 yards = 1870 yards
Therefore, if all 11 players complete the drill, they will cover 1870 yards in total.
To find out how much ground in yards is covered if all 11 players complete the sprint drills, we need to calculate the total distance each player covers for each round trip.
First, let's break down the distances for each round trip:
1. From the end zone to the 10-yard line and back: 10 yards + 10 yards = 20 yards
2. From the end zone to the 25-yard line and back: 25 yards + 25 yards = 50 yards
3. From the end zone to the 50-yard line and back: 50 yards + 50 yards = 100 yards
Now, let's find out the total distance covered if all 11 players complete the drills. We'll multiply the distances for each round trip by the number of players:
1. Total distance covered for the first round trip: 20 yards * 11 players = 220 yards
2. Total distance covered for the second round trip: 50 yards * 11 players = 550 yards
3. Total distance covered for the third round trip: 100 yards * 11 players = 1100 yards
Finally, let's add up the total distance covered for all three round trips:
Total distance covered = 220 yards + 550 yards + 1100 yards = 1870 yards
Therefore, if all 11 players complete the sprint drills, they will cover a total distance of 1870 yards.
