To begin a football game, a kicker has to kick off. The football follows the path h (x) = -(-61), where h (z) is
the height of the football and x is the horizontal distance it has traveled in yards. Solve the equation to determine how
far the ball will have traveled when it hits the ground.
0=-(2-61)
(1 point)
The ball will have traveled yards before hitting the ground
To find the horizontal distance the ball will have traveled when it hits the ground, we need to find the value of x when h(x) = 0.
Given that h(x) = -(-61) = 61, we set 61 equal to 0.
61 = 0
This equation is not possible since 61 cannot equal 0.
Therefore, the ball will not hit the ground and will keep traveling indefinitely.
