(a)
To find: The ordered pair that represents the location of the kicker’s teammate.
(a)
Answer to Problem 11CFU
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Sports: The dimensions of a soccer field are 120 yards by 80 yards. A player kicks the ball from a corner to his teammate at the center of the playing field. Suppose the kicker is located at the origin.
Calculation:
Since, the kick is located at the origin and the teammate is located in the middle of the field,
We can divide the length and width of the field by two to calculate the teammate’s coordinates on the field.
(b)
To find: The distance the ball travels.
(b)
Answer to Problem 11CFU
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Sports: The dimensions of a soccer field are 120 yards by 80 yards. A player kicks the ball from a corner to his teammate at the center of the playing field. Suppose the kicker is located at the origin.
Calculation:
Using the answer of the previous part of the problem
Using the distance formula, we can calculate the distance from the kick to the teammate.
Thus, the distance traveled is 72.111 yds.
