Answer:

You can rightly guess that ballistic motion is described by a quadratic function.

Differences of the y-values are 5.75, 3.25, 0.75, -1.75, -4.25.

First differences are not constant but form a linear sequence that decreases by 2.5 between each pair. Since second differences are constant, the function is described by a 2nd-degree polynomial function, a quadratic.

Find the difference between the result of one sixth of product of 10 and 3 multiplied by 4 and 30

Answer:

10 or -10,

Read the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite this problem as a numerical expression. As per the wording of this problem, there can be two expressions derived.

1. $((\frac{1}{6}(10*3)*4)-30$

2. $30-((\frac{1}{6}(10*3)*4)$

Simplify, remember the order of operations. The order of operations is the sequence by which one is supposed to perform operations in a numerical expression. This order is the following:

1. Parenthesis

2. Exponents

3. Multiplication or division

4. Addition or Subtraction

Use this sequence when simplifying and solving the expression:

Expression 1

$((\frac{1}{6}(10*3)*4)-30\\\\=((\frac{1}{6}(30)*4)-30\\\\=(5*4)-30\\\\=20 - 30\\\\= -10$

Expression 2

$30-((\frac{1}{6}(10*3)*4)\\\\=30-((\frac{1}{6}(30)*4)\\\\=30-(5*4)\\\\= 30-20\\\\= 10$

In a randomly selected sample of 1169 men ages 35–44, the mean total cholesterol level was 210 milligrams per deciliter with a s

Aneli [31]

Answer:

The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 210, \sigma = 38.6$
