An acorn falls from the branch of the tree to the ground 25 feet below. The distance, s, that the acorn is from the ground as it

falls is represented by the equation S(t)=16ft+25 where t is the number of seconds. For which interval of time is the acron moving through the air?

The equation can be rewritten as 45t=16+25 (since 45 is the distance the acorn feel from the tree or s). You would then add 16 and 25 ft together to get 41 and change the equation to 45t=41. Divide 45 from both sides to get approximately 0.9 seconds as your answer.

Answer:

1.25 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function: S(t) = –16*t^2 + 25

where S is the distance from the ground in feet and t is time in seconds.

When the acorn hits the ground its distance is zero, replacing into the equation we get:

0 = –16*t^2 + 25

-25/(-16) = t^2

t = √1.5625

t = 1.25 seconds

Answer:

Total interest to be paid: $210

Total amount to be repaid: $3,710

Step-by-step explanation:

You can ignore the monthly payment for this problem.

For simple interest, the formula is I = PRT where I = interest earned, P = principal amount borrowed/deposited, R = rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.

I = (3,500)(0.06)(1)

I = 210

Then add that to the amount borrowed ($3,500) and you're done.

3,500 + 210 = $3,710

A 500-page book contains 250 sheets of paper. The thickness of the paper used to manufacture the book has mean 0.08 mm and stand
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

10.20% probability that a randomly chosen book is more than 20.2 mm thick

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.

In this problem, we have that:

250 sheets, each sheet has mean 0.08 mm and standard deviation 0.01 mm.

So for the book.

\mu = 250*0.08 = 20, \sigma = \sqrt{250}*0.01 = 0.158

What is the probability that a randomly chosen book is more than 20.2 mm thick (not including the covers)

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20.2. So

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

Z = \frac{20.2 - 20}{0.158}

Z = 1.27

Z = 1.27 has a pvalue of 0.8980

1 - 0.8980 = 0.1020

10.20% probability that a randomly chosen book is more than 20.2 mm thick
