Question

a football is thrown by a quarterback to a receiver. the points in the figure show the height of the football, in feet, above the ground in terms of its distance, in yards, from the quarterback. use this information to solve the problem. find the coordinates of point a (type an ordered pair. type integers or decimals rounded to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify x - coordinate

By looking at the graph, the x - coordinate (distance from quarterback in yards) of point A is 4.

Step2: Identify y - coordinate

By looking at the graph, the y - coordinate (height above the ground in feet) of point A is 7.

Answer:

(4, 7)
