Question

Modeling Real Life-The graph shows the path of two home runs. Compare the two home runs

The second home run reaches a (greater/lesser) maximum height, and the first home run lands (closer/farther) from home plate than the second home run.

Answer 1

Explanation:

First, note the conversion: 1 yard = 3 feet.

Home Run 1:

• Maximum height is less than 30 yards => Less than 90 feet.

• Maximum distance is 140 yards. => 420 feet.

Home Run 2:

• Maximum height is over 90 feet.

• Maximum distance is less than 420 feet.

Hence, the 2nd home run reaches a greater maximum height, and the 1st home run lands farther from home plate than the 2nd home run.
