Rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the

given equation. Using this equation, find the time that the rocket will hit the ground, to the nearest 100th of second.

Answer:

The time that the rocket will hit the ground is 12.87 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The rocket is launched from a tower  y=-16x^2+199x+90. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the given equation.

To find : The time that the rocket will hit the ground ?

Solution :

When the rocket hit the ground i.e. height became zero y=0,

Equation is y=-16x^2+199x+90

Substitute y=0,

-16x^2+199x+90=0

Using quadratic formula, x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

x=\frac{-(199)\pm\sqrt{(199)^2-4(-16)(90)}}{2(-16)}

x=\frac{-199\pm\sqrt{45361}}{-32}

x=\frac{-199+\sqrt{45361}}{-32},\frac{-199-\sqrt{45361}}{-32}

x=-0.43,12.87

Reject negative value.

The time taken is 12.87 seconds.

Independent variables must be the amount of cans you buy of cat food. The dependent variable, well that must be the cost. Depending on how many cans you buy, the cost changes! :)

To the nearest tenth, find the perimeter of ABC with vertices A (-2,-2) B (0,5) and C (3,1)
Pavlova-9 [17]

the perimeter will then just be the sum of the distances of A, B and C, namely AB + BC + CA.


\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\A(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\qquadB(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})\qquad \qquadd = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{[0-(-2)]^2+[5-(-2)]^2}\implies AB=\sqrt{(0+2)^2+(5+2)^2}\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{4+49}\implies \boxed{AB=\sqrt{53}}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\B(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})\qquad C(\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\\\\\\BC=\sqrt{(3-0)^2+(1-5)^2}\implies BC=\sqrt{3^2+(-4)^2}


\bf BC=\sqrt{9+16}\implies \boxed{BC=5}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\C(\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1})\qquad A(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\\\\\\CA=\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(-2-1)^2}\implies CA=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-3)^2}\\\\\\CA=\sqrt{25+9}\implies \boxed{CA=\sqrt{34}}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\~\hfill \stackrel{AB+BC+CA}{\approx 18.11}~\hfill

What value of x makes the equation true ? 4(2x-4)=16
otez555 [7]
4(2x-4) = 16
4*2x - 4*4 = 16
8x - 16 = 16
8x = 16 + 16
8x = 32 / : 8
x = 4

A manager wants to test whether two normally distributed and independent populations have equal variances. the appropriate test
SSSSS [86.1K]

A manager wants to test whether two normally distributed and independent populations have equal variances. the appropriate test statistic for this test is a "F-statistics."

<h3>What is F-statistics?</h3>

An F statistic is a value obtained after performing an ANOVA test or even a regression analysis to determine whether the means of two populations differ significantly.

Some key features regarding the F-statistics are-

  • It is comparable to a T statistic from the a T-Test; a T-test would then inform you when a single result is statistically significant, whereas a F test would then tell you if a set of variables is statistically significant.
  • When determining whether your total results are significant, you must use the F statistic in conjunction with the p value. Why?
  • A significant result does not imply that all of your variables have been significant.
  • The statistic is simply comparing the cumulative influence of all the variables.
