Answer 1

Answer

IS C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: The player is catching the ball at (4,25), therefore the second option is correct.

Explanation:

It the given graph x-axis represents the time (in seconds) after throw and y-axis represents the distance from goal (in yards).

In the graph violet and orange lines represents the distance of player and ball  respectively, from the goal at different point of time.

The player will catch the ball when the distance of player and ball from the goal is same on the single point of time.

The point of time where distance of player and ball from the goal is same, is the point of intersection of both lines.

From the graph it is clearly noticed that both lines  violet and orange insects at point (4,26), therefore player is catching the ball at (4,25), therefore the second option is correct.
