Ok
y=-0.04x^2+8.3x+4.3
when the rocket reaches the ground (when height=0, ie when y=0), then the rocket will land, find the x coordinate
set y=0
0=-0.04x^2+8.3x+4.3
use quadratic formula
if you have ax^2+bx+c=0, then
x=

a=-0.04
b=8.3
c=4.3
x=

x=208.017 or -0.516785
xrepresents horizontal distance
you cannot have a negative horizontal distance unless you fired and theh wind blew it backwards
therefor x=280.017 is the answer
208.02 m
It is adding one little percentage of increase here. or, 1.1 each time....hope that this helps.
Answer:
the pennies does not conform to the US mints specification
Step-by-step explanation:
z = (variate -mean)/ standard deviation
z= 2.5 - 2.4991 / 0.01648 = 0.0546
we are going to check the value of z in the normal distribution table, which is the table bounded by z.
checking for z= 0.0 under 55 gives 0.0219 (value gotten from the table of normal distribution)
we subtract the value of z from 0.5 (1- (0.5+0.0219)) = 0.4781 > 0.05claim
since 0.4781 > 0.05claim, therefore, the pennies does not conform to the US mints specification
the claim state a 5% significance level whereas the calculated significance level is 47.81%. therefore, the claim should be rejected
