The values of the vertical motion modelled by the quadratic function, h(t) = -16·t² + 54·t + 3 of the object are;

The maximum height reached is approximately 48.6 units

The time of flight is approximately 3.4 seconds

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function is a polynomial of the form y = a·x² + b·x + c, where the value of <em>a </em> is larger than or lesser than 0

First part;

The function, for the vertical motion, h(t) = -16·t² + 54·t + 3, is a quadratic function;

The maximum height is found by using the equation that gives the value of <em>x</em> at the maximum value, which is presented as follows;

At the maximum point, x = \dfrac{-b}{2\cdot a}

From the equation, <em>a</em> = -16, <em>b</em> = 54, <em>c</em> = 3, and <em>x</em> = t, which gives;

t = \dfrac{-54}{2\times (-16)}  = 1.6875

The maximum height is therefore;

h(1.6875) = -16 × 1.6875² + 54 × 1.6875 + 3 = 48.6

The time the object is in the air is found using the equation;

h(t) = 0 = -16·t² + 54·t + 3

Using the quadratic formula, x= \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4\cdot a \cdot c} }{2 \cdot a}, we have;

t= \dfrac{-54\pm \sqrt{54^2 - 4\times (-16)\times 3} }{2 \times (-16)}=\dfrac{27\pm \sqrt{777} }{16}

The time of flight is therefore;

t=\dfrac{27+ \sqrt{777} }{16}\approx 3.4

The time of flight is 3.4 seconds

Suppose a marketing company wants to determine the current proportion of customers who click on ads on their smartphones. It was
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The 92% confidence interval for the true proportion of customers who click on ads on their smartphones is (0.3336, 0.5064).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 100, p = 0.42

92% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.08, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.08}{2} = 0.96, so Z = 1.75.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 - 1.75\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.3336

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 - 1.75\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.5064

The 92% confidence interval for the true proportion of customers who click on ads on their smartphones is (0.3336, 0.5064).

The radius of a cylinder is increased by 5 percent. Given that the height is constant, find the percentage increase in volume. ​
telo118 [61]

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume =pir^h

V1=pi r1^h

V2=pir2^2h

Now,V1/V2=r1^2/r2^2

v1/v2=r1^2/(1.05)^2 ((r2=r1+5/100r1)

v1/v2=1/1.1025

v1/v2=0.907

(v1/v2-1)=0.0907×100%

(v1-v2)/v2=9.07%

increase in volume is 9.07%
