Given:

Sample Mean <span>= 30<span>
Sample size </span><span><span><span>= 1000</span></span><span>
</span></span></span>Population Standard deviation or <span><span><span>σ<span>=2</span></span><span>
</span></span>Confidence interval </span><span>= 95%</span>

to compute for the confidence interval

Population Mean or <span>μ<span><span>= sample mean ± (</span>z×<span>SE</span>)</span></span>

<span><span>where:</span></span>

<span><span>SE</span>→</span> Standard Error

<span><span>SE</span>=<span>σ<span>√n</span>= 30</span></span>√1000=0.9486

Critical Value of z for 95% confidence interval <span>=1.96</span>

<span>μ<span>=30±<span>(1.96×0.9486)</span></span><span>
</span></span><span>μ<span>=30±1.8594</span></span>

Upper Limit

<span>μ <span>= 30 + 1.8594 = 31.8594</span></span>

Lower Limit

<span>μ <span>= 30 − 1.8594 = <span>28.1406</span></span></span>

A model airplane is shot up from a platform 1 foot above the ground with an initial upward velocity of 56 feet per second. The h
scoray [572]

Answer:

Option B. 1.8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h=-16t^2+56t+1

This is a quadratic equation, and its graph is a parabola

h=at^2+bt+c; a=-16, b=56, c=1

Like a=-16<0 the parabola opens downward, and it has a maximum value (height) at the vertex, at the abscissa:

t=-\frac{b}{2a}

Replacing the known values:

t=-\frac{56}{2(-16)}\\ t=-\frac{56}{(-32)}\\ t= 1.75

Approximately 1.8 seconds.

Answer: It takes approximately 1.8 seconds the airplane to reach its maximum height.
