Answer: The answer should be B mate:)
Answer: 169.26 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, The distance of pitcher's mound from the home plate = 60.5 feet
And, the distance covered by ball when it was hit by the bat = 216 feet
Let the outfielder throw the ball from the distance x feet.
Thus, by the below diagram,



Hence, the outfielder throw the ball from the distance of 169.26 feet Approximately.
From the text you can derive the following equations:
(1) A = bh/2 = 8
(2) and h = b+6
Fill in h in (1):
b(b+6)/2 = 8 => b^2 + 6b = 16 with the quadratic formula or simply trying some values for b you can find b=2, so h=8.
