Solve the problem.A baseball pitcher throws a baseball with an initial speed of 138 feet per second at an angle of 20° to the horizontal. The ball leaves the pitcher's hand at a height of 4 feet. Find parametric equations that describe the motion of the ball as a function of time. How long is the ball in the air? When is the ball at its maximum height? What is the maximum height of the ball?
A. x = 129.68t, y = -16t2 + 47.2t + 4
5.725 sec, 1.475 sec,
282.48 feet
B. x = 129.68t, y = -16t2 + 47.2t + 4
2.863 sec, 1.475 sec,
3.985 feet
C. x = 129.68t, y = -16t2 + 47.2t + 4
6.065 sec, 1.475 sec,
34.81 feet
D. x = 129.68t, y = -16t2 + 47.2t + 4
3.032 sec, 1.475 sec,
38.81 feet
