Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard normal distribution is represented by P(-zc < z < zc) = c

From this, you see that -zc is less than the variable of interest z and z is less than zc.

The equation simply means that the probability that -zc is less than z and z is less than zc, is c.

The value zc is NOT a value from the above distribution. All values in the distribution are of the variable z. For example, z might be equal to 1, z might be equal to 6, but the variable of interest in the distribution is z, not zc.

The height 'h' (in feet) of a ball in a baseball game can be modeled by h = -16t² + 28t + 8 , where 't' is the time (in seconds)

lidiya [134]

Answer:

a) No. t < 0 is not part of the useful domain of the function

b) 2.0 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A graph of the function is shown below. It shows t-intercepts at t=-0.25 and t=2.0. We presume that t is measured forward from some event such as the ball being thrown or hit. The model's predicted ball location has no meaning prior to that event, when values of t are negative.

b) It is convenient to use a graphing calculator to find the t-intercepts. Or, the equation can be solved for h=0 any of several ways algebraically. One is by factoring.

h = 0 = -16t² +28t +8 . . . . . . . . . . . . the ball hits the ground when h = 0

0 = -4(4t² -7t -2) = -4(4t +1)(t -2)

This has t-intercepts where the factors are zero, at t=-1/4 and t=2.

The ball will hit the ground after 2 seconds.
