the distance feet on graph hits 400 and shows (2.5,385) on the graph in time in seconds
The graph represents the distance a major-league outfielder throws a baseball. He can throw a baseball as fast as 105 miles per hour, or 154 feet per second. Which equation represents this scenario? (1 point) Responses 105⋅2.5=262.5 105 times 2.5 equals 262.5 105⋅90=9,450 105 times 90 equals 9,450 154⋅2.5=385 154 times 2.5 equals 385 154⋅90=13,860
The equation that represents this scenario is 154⋅2.5=385, as it shows the distance of 385 feet after 2.5 seconds.
The equation that represents this scenario is 154⋅2.5=385.
To find the equation that represents the scenario of the outfielder throwing a baseball, we need to consider the relationship between time and distance.
Given that the outfielder can throw a baseball at a speed of 154 feet per second, the distance (in feet) covered by the baseball can be represented by the equation:
Distance = Speed × Time
In this scenario, we are given that the distance on the graph hits 400 and the corresponding time on the graph is 2.5 seconds (2.5,385).
To find the equation that represents the scenario, we substitute the given values into the equation:
400 = 154 × 2.5
Simplifying this equation, we have:
400 = 385
However, this equation is not correct because it simplifies to a false statement. Therefore, none of the provided options in the multiple-choice question correctly represent the scenario.
It appears that the given information or the options provided may be incorrect, as they do not align with the relationship between distance and time.
