A ball is thrown so that the motion is defined by the equations x = 5.8t and y = 2 + 6t − 4.9t2, where x and y are expressed in meters and t is expressed in seconds. Determine the horizontal distance the ball travels before hitting the ground. The horizontal distance the ball travels before hitting the ground is m.
