A ball is thrown upward, with an initial velocity of 30 meters per second, at an angle of 61 with respect to the horizontal. The ball is thrown from a height of 6meters off the ground.The horizontal distance x from the starting point and the height y above the ground of the ball / seconds after it is thrown are given by the parametric equationsbelow.x=(vocos?) ty=-4.9t + (vosin?)t + hHere vo is the initial velocity, 8 is the initial angle with respect to the horizontal, and h is the initial height.Use the equations to answer the following questions.(a) How long is the ball in the air before it first touches the ground?Do not round any intermediate computations. Round your answer tothe nearest hundredth.seconds(b) What is the horizontal distance that the ball travels before it firsttouches the ground?Round your answer to the nearest whole number.meters
