A model rocket is launched with an initial velocity of 200 ft per second. The height h, in feet, of the rocket t seconds after t

he launch is given by h = −16t2 + 200t. How many seconds after the launch will the rocket be 350 ft above the ground? Round to the nearest hundredth of a second. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

Answer:

2.10 s, 10.40 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the height of the rocket is given by the function:

h=-16t^2+200t

We are asked to find the time for which the height of the rocket will be 350 ft. So, for that moment, we know the height but we don't know the time; however, we know that the equation can help us to find the time, doing h=350:

350=-16t^2+200t

The last is a quadratic equation, which can be put in the form at^2+bt+c=0 and solved applying the formula:

t=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

So, let's put the equation on the form at^2+bt+c=0 adding 16t^2 and subtracting 200t to each side of the equation; the result is:

16t^2-200t+350=0

So, we note that a=16, b=-200, and c=350.

Then,

t_1=\frac{200-\sqrt{200^2-4*16*350} }{2*16}=2.10

t_2=\frac{200+\sqrt{200^2-4*16*350} }{2*16}=10.40

According to the equation, that are the times for which the height will be 350 ft; that is because the rocket is going to ascend and then to fail again to the ground.

Use the value of the linear correlation coefficient r to find the coefficient of determination and the percentage of the total v
adoni [48]

The coefficient of determination is the square of the correlation coefficient, and the value is 0.0151

<h3>How to determine the coefficient of determination?</h3>

The given parameter is:

Correlation coefficient, r = 0.123

Rewrite as:

r = 0.123

Take the square of both sides

r² = 0.123²

Evaluate the square

r² = 0.015129

Approximate

r² = 0.0151

The coefficient of determination is represented by r²

Hence, the coefficient of determination is 0.0151

Here are the percents of the popular
kvv77 [185]

Answer: 57.4

Step-by-step explanation:

First order the numbers from the smallest to the largest:

49.6, 55.1, 57.4, 49.7, 61.1, 43.4,  60.7, 50.1, 50.7, 58.8, 53.9, 43.2,  49.2, 47.9, 51.2

to:

43.2, 43.4, 47.9, 49.2, 49.6, 49.7, 50.1, 50.7, 51.2, 53.9, 55.1, 57.4, 58.8, 60.7, 61.1.

The position of third quartile is:

= (N + 1) * 3/4

= (15 + 1) * 3/4

= 12th position

That number is:

= 57.4
