Question

football 2 continued. the wide receiver is a little over 25 yards down field from the quarterback when he caught the touchdown. can you find how far the quarterback threw the ball? explain your answer.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the distance given

The wide - receiver is a little over 25 yards down field from the quarterback when catching the touchdown. This distance represents the straight - line distance the ball traveled from the quarterback to the wide - receiver.
The ball travels in a straight line (assuming no significant wind or other external factors affecting its path) from the point of release by the quarterback to the point of catch by the wide - receiver.
So the distance the quarterback threw the ball is approximately 25 yards (since it's stated as a little over 25 yards and without more specific information, we can approximate to 25 yards).

Answer:

25 yards
