Andrew kicks a ball along a straight path. The ball rolls straight forward for 13.2 meters. Then Andrew kicks the ball straight back. The ball rolls back along the same path for 9.5 meters. What distance did the ball travel?

Respuesta :

Answer: 22.7 meters

Explanation: The distance traveled is how much the ball has rolled in total, this means the lenght of the path that it has followed from begining to end.

Since it first travels 13.2 meters and then 9.5 meters, if we sum this quantities:

13.2 + 9.5 = 22.7 meters

So 22.7 is the distance that the ball has traveled.
