https://prnt.sc/119z4f9 you were asked to determine the distance from the right center field fence to third base. If the right fielder catches the ball at the fence but the distance to third base is greater than the distance the right fielder can throw the ball in the air, can the ball still reach the third baseman? Provide at least two possibilities

iosangel:

the initial question was to determine the distance x from home plate to the right center field fence.

BBYGIRL:

what does ur question look like

AZ:

I'm kind of confused what the question is asking The diagram shows us that the distance from the right center field fence to the third base is 339.4 feet. If the person who caught the ball can't throw that far, will the ball reach the third baseman??

iosangel:

and then the question was how you are going to determine the distance x from home plate to the right center field fence. and i got 370 ft The question told me to look back at that question answer answer the question i asked

hamidiso23:

the question is confusing me

BBYGIRL:

same

BBYGIRL:

oki so wat are u looking for

BBYGIRL:

cause there are 3 ways

AZ:

Yeah, I got the initial question but for this question I'm not sure what "two possibilities" they're asking you to come up with how the ball can make it to the third baseman? just pass it to another person on the field so that way then it'll be closer to the end goal and that person can most likely throw it the remaining distance

iosangel:

. If the right fielder catches the ball at the fence but the distance to third base is greater than the distance the right fielder can throw the ball in the air,, can the ball still reach the third baseman

iosangel:

https://prnt.sc/119z4f9 Can you see this picture

AZ:

Yes, I can let's simplify that question you can only throw the ball 10 feet but if I'm standing 30 feet away from you, will the ball reach me?

iosangel:

can you see the third base

iosangel:

Where did you get you can only throw the ba;; 10 ft

AZ:

it's an example... but the concept is the same the third base is where it says "3rd" the questions says that if the person catching the ball at the right center field CANNOT throw that far will the ball reach the third base?

iosangel:

what

iosangel:

idek to be honest ill just ask my teacher

iosangel:

lol

AZ:

the distance is 339.4 feet the guy cannot throw the ball 339.4 feet he can only throw less than that will the ball make it all the way to the end?

iosangel:

it wont but its asking for the possibilities

AZ:

Yeah, it won't I'm not sure what kind of possibilities they're asking for since this this is a math question and not a sports question lol But this is the only possibility that I could think of \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @AZ Yeah, I got the initial question but for this question I'm not sure what "two possibilities" they're asking you to come up with how the ball can make it to the third baseman? just pass it to another person on the field so that way then it'll be closer to the end goal and that person can most likely throw it the remaining distance \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\)
