Answer:

<em>The stone covers 36 m in the 5th second. Correct choice: A.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportions</u>

Two variables are said to be proportional if one of them can be calculated by multiplying the other by a constant of proportionality. If y and x are those variables, then:

y=k.x

There are other similar proportions where the relation is not linear. For example, if y is proportional to the square of x, then:

y=k.x^2

According to the conditions of the question, the distance traveled by a stone dropped from a height of 5 Km varies directly with the square of the time taken to fall through that distance. If d is the distance and t is the time, then;

d=k.t^2

To find the value of k, we use the given condition: The stone falls d=66 meters in t=4 seconds. Substituting:

64=k.4^2=16k

Solving:

k=64/16=4

Substitute the value of k into the equation to get the complete model.

d=4.t^2

Now we calculate the distance when t=5 seconds:

d=4\cdot 5^2=4\cdot 25=100

The stone has covered 100 m in 5 seconds. But we need to find the distance covered in the 5th second, that specific interval between 4 sec and 5 sec.

Since we already know the distance for t=4 sec (64 m), and the distance for t=5 sec (100 m), then:

distance in the 5th second = 100 m - 64 m = 36 m

The stone covers 36 m in the 5th second. Option A.

the brain volumes ​(​) of 50 brains vary from a low of to a high of . use the range rule of thumb to estimate the standard devia
Sloan [31]

The estimated standard deviation from the range rule is 145.5 cm3.As it is 29.8 cm3 smaller than the exact standard deviation, we consider that the estimation is not accurate enough.

Generally, brain volumes which are smaller than 921.1 cm3 can be considered significantly low and bigger than 1417.5 cm3 can be considered significantly high. Hence, brain volume of 1457.5 cm3 is bigger than the expected maximum, so it can be considered significantly high.

The calculation goes like this,

According to the range rule, the standard deviation and range, or the distance between the maximum and smallest value, are roughly inversely proportional:

s=R/4

If we have a sample of 50 brains volumes, and they range from 910 cm3 to 1492 cm3, we can estimate the standard deviation as:

s=max-min/4

s=1492-910/4=582/4=145.5

The exact standard deviation is 175.3 cm3.The difference is 175.3-145.5=29.8 cm3, so the estimation is not accurate enough.

The range rule of thumb states that we should anticipate a maximum value that is approximately two standard deviations above the mean and a lowest value that is approximately two standard deviations below the mean. The expected ranges are as follows given our mean volume of 1169.3 cm3 and standard deviation of 124.1 cm3:

Min= M-2s=1169.3-2*124.1=921.1

Max=M+2s=1169.3+2*124.1=1417.5

The brain capacity of 1457.5 cm3 can be regarded as significantly high because it is higher than the predicted maximum.
