An object launched vertically from a point that is 37.5 feet above ground level with an initial velocity of 48.6 feet per second

can be represented by the equation h=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5, where h is the height of the object and t is the time after the object is launched. How long does it take the object to hit the ground?

Answer: 3.675 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, when the object hits the ground, h=0:

h=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5

0=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5

We have to apply the quadratic formula:  

For: ax2+ bx + c  

x =[ -b ± √b²-4ac] /2a  

Replacing with the values given:  

a=-16 ; b=48.6; c=37.5

x =[ -(48.6) ± √(-48.6)²-4(-16)37.5] /2(-16)  

x = [ -48.6 ± √ 4,761.96] /-32

x = [ -48.6 ± 69] /-32

Positive:  

x = [ -48.6 + 69] /-32 = -0.6375

Negative:  

x = [ -48.6 - 69] /-32 = 3.675 seconds (seconds can't be negative)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Fill in the P(X=x) values to give a legitimate probability distribution for the discrete random variable , whose possible values
Naddika [18.5K]

For a probability distribution to be represented, it is needed that P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.44. Hence one possible example is:

  • P(X = 0) = 0.40.
  • P(X = 1) = 0.04.

<h3>What is needed for a discrete random variable to represent a probability distribution?</h3>

The sum of all the probabilities must be of 1, hence:

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 1.

Then, considering the table:

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + 0.15 + 0.17 + 0.24 = 1

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + 0.56 = 1

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.44.

Hence one possible example is:

  • P(X = 0) = 0.40.
  • P(X = 1) = 0.04.
