David throws a fastball in a baseball game. The ball moves 27/2 feet in 1/10 second. At this rate, how far will the baseball go in 1 second?​

Answer :

By applying unitary method, the ball moves 135 feet in 1 seconds.

According to the question, we will apply unitary method.

It is given that,

The ball moves 27/2 feet in 1/10 seconds, that is,

27/2feet = 1/10 seconds              (1)

We have to find, how far will the baseball go in 1 second, that is,

x feet = 1second,                (2)

where x is the distance the balls moves in 1 second.

Now applying unitary method, equation (1) and (2) can be written as,

1/10seconds = 27/2feet

1seconds = (27/2) / (1/10) feet

= 135 feet

Hence, the ball moves 135 feet in 1 second.
