William and Stephanie are playing a rather dangerous game of catch on the rooftops of skyscrapers in downtown Chicago. William i

s preparing to throw a tennis ball off the roof of the John Hancock Center, 1130 feet above street level. Stephanie is waiting to catch the ball on the rooftop of the neighboring Water Tower Place, 830 feet above street level. William throws the ball, which leaves his hand with an upward velocity of 46 feet per second, and travels in a parabolic path. Stephanie catches the ball exactly 6.0 seconds after it is thrown. Create a quadratic function describing the height of the ball above the street level with respect to time.

The question involves the concept & equations associated with projectile motion.

Given:
y₁ = 1130 ft
v₁ = +46 ft/s (note positive sign indicates upwards direction)
t = 6.0 s
g = acceleration due to gravity (assumed constant for simplicity) = -32.2 ft/s²


Of the possible equations of motion, the one we'll find useful is:

y₂ = y₁ + v₁t + 1/2gt²

We can just plug and chug to define the equation of motion:

<u><em>y = (1130 ft) + (46 ft/s)t + 1/2(-32.2 ft/s²)t²</em></u>


<em>(note: if you were to calculate y using t = 6.0 s, you'd find that y = 826.4 ft, instead of 830 ft exactly because of some rounding of g and/or the initial velocity)</em>

The probability when x is greater than 120 is 0.0367. Then the correct option is D.

<h3>What is a normal distribution?</h3>

The Gaussian Distribution is another name for it. The most significant continuous probability distribution is this one. Because the curve resembles a bell, it is also known as a bell curve.

The z-score is a statistical evaluation of a value's correlation to the mean of a collection of values, expressed in terms of standard deviation.

The mean is 95 and the standard deviation is 14. Then the probability when x > 120 will be

The z-score will be

z = (120 - 95)/ 14

z = 1.7857

Then the probability will be

P(x > 120) = P(z > 1.7857)

P(x > 120) = 1 - P(x<120)

P(x > 120) = 1 - 0.96293

P(x > 120) = 0.0367

More about the normal distribution link is given below.

The chi-square test assesses whether the _____ observed in a cross-tabulation diverge from those one would expect under the null
pantera1 [17]

Answer: Frequencies .

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics theory the chi-square test statistic is calculated by considering each cell and the expected frequency is subtracted from the observed frequency after that the difference is squared, and the total is divided by the expected frequency. This is highlight that the key focus of the chi-square test is the frequencies .
