H(t)=-16t^2+1221 is the function for the height as a function of time.  It will hit the ground when h=0 so:

-16t^2+1221=0

16t^2-1221=0

16t^2=1221

t^2=1221/16

t=√(1221/16) seconds

t≈8.74 seconds  (to nearest hundredth of a second)

S=16t^2
1221=16t^2
1221/16=t^2
square root of 76.3=t
t=8.7

Help quickly! A student wants to report on the number of movies her friends watch each week. The collected data are below:

1.The measure of center that is most appropriate for this situation is the MEDIAN. This is because, one of the number given is an outlier, that is, it is much greater than the rest of the given numbers. If the mean of the number given is calculated, it will be discovered that the mean value obtained is higher than most of the scores in the data set, thus,the mean is not a suitable measure of central tendency in this case.
2. To find the median of the given numbers, arrange them in a descending order and add the two numbers in the middle then divide the value by 2.
That is, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 14.
The two numbers in the middle is 1 and 2.
 Median = [1 + 2] / 2 = 3/2 = 1.5
Therefore, the median is 1.5
