Lucas threw a ball into the air from a height of 4 feet the ball reached a maximum height of 13 feet when it was a horizontal distance of 4.5 feet from Lucas the ball landed on the ground

1 answer

after traveling a horizontal distance of 9 feet from where it was thrown.

Using this information, we can calculate the total horizontal distance the ball traveled as follows:

The total horizontal distance = the horizontal distance from Lucas to the point where the ball reached its maximum height + the horizontal distance from that point to where the ball landed.

Therefore, the total horizontal distance = 4.5 feet + 9 feet = 13.5 feet.

So, the total horizontal distance the ball traveled is 13.5 feet.
