The path of a golf ball can be modeled by the quadratic equation y=-0.001x^2+0.3x, where y represents the vertical distance and

x represents the horizontal distance that the ball has traveled in yards. How far does the ball travel before it hits the ground?

Well if y represents the vertical distance of the ball then you want to solve the equation for when y is 0, since 0 would represent the ball being on the ground.  So substitute 0 in for y and solve the equation.

0 = - 0.001x^2 + 0.3x

we have a common factor of x in both terms so we can take that out.

0 = x(-0.001x + 0.3)

Zero product property tells us that we can set both of those products equal to zero and solve

0 = x
0 = -0.001x + 0.3

our first answer is x = 0 is obvious bc thats when the ball starts before you hit it, means it traveled 0.

solving the second equation gives us x = 300 

so the ball traveled 300 "yards" I suppose your problem starts, which is impossible, but no matter thats the answer :-)

Answer

given,

mean = 12 Kg

standard deviation = 0.5 Kg

assume the observed statistic is = 11.1

 now, \bar{X}=11.1 , \mu = 12 , \sigma = 0.5

assuming the number of sample = 4

n = 4

Hypothesis test:

H₀ : μ≥ 12

Ha : μ < 12

now,

significant level α = 0.05

z* = \dfrac{\bar{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z* = \dfrac{11.1-12}{\dfrac{0.5}{\sqrt{4}}}

     z* = -3.60

Test statistics, Z* = -3.60

P-value

P(Z<-3.60) = 0.002 (from z- table)

P- value = 0.002

now,

reject the value of H₀ when P-value < α

    0.002 < 0.05

since, it is less P-value < α , we have to reject the null hypothesis
