An object is dropped from a bridge and allowed to freefall to the ground. The height of the object over time can be modeled usin

kkurt [141]

Answer:

<em>t = 3 seconds</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation, as a function of time, that describes the height of the object that is dropped from the bridge.

The equation is:

$h (t) = 144 - 16t ^ 2$

Where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.

To know how long it takes the object to fall to the ground we do h (t) = 0 and solve for t.

So:

$0 = 144 - 16t ^ 2\\\\16t ^ 2 = 144\\\\t ^ 2 = \frac{144}{16}\\\\t ^ 2 = 9\\\\t_1 = 3\\t_2 = -3$

We take the positive solution.

Therefore the object takes 3 seconds to reach the ground

What two rational expressions sum to 2x+3/x^2-5x+4

Anni [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression: $\frac{2x + 3}{x^2 - 5x + 4}$ , to express this in simplified form, we would need to apply the concept of partial fraction.

Step 1: factorise the denominator

$x^2 - 5x + 4$

$x^2 - 4x - x + 4$

$(x^2 - 4x) - (x + 4)$

$x(x - 4) - 1(x - 4)$

$(x- 1)(x - 4)$

Thus, we now have: $\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$

Step 2: Apply the concept of Partial Fraction

Let,

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$ = $\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

Multiply both sides by (x - 1)(x - 4)

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} * (x - 1)(x - 4)$ = $(\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}) * (x - 1)(x - 4)$

$2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

Step 3:

Substituting x = 4 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(4) + 3 = A(4 - 4) + B(4 - 1)$

$8 + 3 = A(0) + B(3)$

$11 = 3B$

$\frac{11}{3} = B$

$B = \frac{11}{3}$

Substituting x = 1 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(1) + 3 = A(1 - 4) + B(1 - 1)$

$2 + 3 = A(-3) + B(0)$

$5 = -3A$

$\frac{5}{-3} = \frac{-3A}{-3}$

$A = -\frac{5}{3}$

Step 4: Plug in the values of A and B into the original equation in step 2

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

The length of time a person takes to decide which shoes to purchase is normally distributed with a mean of 8.21 minutes and a st

madam [21]

Answer:

4.55% probability that a randomly selected individual will take less than 5 minutes to select a shoe purchase.

Since Z > -2 and Z < 2, this outcome is not considered unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

If $Z \leq 2$ or $Z \geq 2$ , the outcome X is considered to be unusual.

In this question:

$\mu = 8.21, \sigma = 1.9$

Find the probability that a randomly selected individual will take less than 5 minutes to select a shoe purchase.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5 - 8.21}{1.9}$

$Z = -1.69$

$Z = -1.69$ has a pvalue of 0.0455.

4.55% probability that a randomly selected individual will take less than 5 minutes to select a shoe purchase.

Since Z > -2 and Z < 2, this outcome is not considered unusual.
