<h2>Maximum height reached is 6.5 ft</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation is given by p(t) = 3gt² + v₀t + P₀

Given that

                g = -32 ft/s²

                v₀ = 24 ft/s

                P₀ = 5 ft

Substituting

              p(t) = 3 x -32 x t² + 24 x t + 5

              p(t) = -96 t² + 24 t + 5

We need to find maximum of this equation, at maximum we have derivative is zero.

              p'(t) = -96 x 2t + 24 = 0

             192 t = 24

                    t = 0.125 s

Substituting in p(t) equation

              p(0.125) = -96 x 0.125² + 24 x 0.125 + 5

              p(0.125) = 6.5 ft

Maximum height reached is 6.5 ft

Discriminant of quadratic equation ( ax² + bx + c = 0 ) could be calculated by using :

<h2>D = b² - 4 a c</h2>

From the value of Discriminant , we know how many solutions the equation has by condition :

D < 0 → No Real Roots

D = 0 → One Real Root

D > 0 → Two Real Roots

\texttt{ }

An axis of symmetry of quadratic equation y = ax² + bx + c is :

\large {\boxed {x = \frac{-b}{2a} } }

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

p(t) = 3gt^2 + v_ot + p_o

p(t) = 3(-32)t^2 + 24t + 5

p(t) = -64t^2 + 24t + 5

<u>Asked:</u>

p_{max} = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>At the maximum height , velocity is 0 m/s:</em>

v = \frac{dp(t)}{dt}

v = \frac{d}{dt} ( -64t^2 + 24t + 5 )

v = (-64)(2)t^{2-1} + 24

v = -128t + 24

0 = -128t + 24

128t = 24

t = 24 \div 128

t = 3 \div 16

t = 0.1875 \texttt{ s}

\texttt{ }

p(t) = -64t^2 + 24t + 5

p(0.1875) = -64(0.1875)^2 + 24(0.1875) + 5

p(0.1875) = 7.25 \texttt{ m}

A professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their class
KIM [24]

Answer:

We conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes at 0.01 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their classes.

He randomly samples a group of seniors and out of 2521 classes, the group skipped 77.

<u><em /></u>

<u><em>Let p = percentage of seniors who skip their classes.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \leq 2%   {means that seniors skip less than or equal to 2% of their classes}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p > 2%   {means that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample z proportion</u> <u>statistics</u>;

                                   T.S.  = \frac{\hat p-p}{{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of seniors who skipped their classes = \frac{77}{2521}

           n = sample of classes = 2521

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{\frac{77}{2521} -0.02}{{\sqrt{\frac{\frac{77}{2521}(1-\frac{77}{2521})}{2521} } } } }

                               =  3.08

The value of the test statistics is 3.08.

Now at 0.01 significance level, <u>the z table gives critical value of 2.3263 for right-tailed test</u>. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z as 2.3263 < 3.08, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which <u>we reject our null hypothesis</u>.

Therefore, we conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes.

The base of the 37 foot ladder is 9 feet from the wall of a building. will the top of the ladder reach a window ledge 35 feet ab
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The math in this problem is that we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve it. Pythagorean theorem is part of trigonometry a branch of Maths.

Data

base = 9 ft                      

length = 37 ft

height = ?

Pythagorean theorem

                                     c² = a² + b²

length = c

base = a

height = b

                                   37² = 9² + b²

-Solve for b

                                    b² = 37² - 9²

-Simplify

                                    b² = 1369 - 81

                                    b² = 1288

-Result

                                   b = 35.88

-Conclusion

The ladder will reach a height higher than 35 ft.

Curt and Ian both ran a mile. Curt time was 8/9 of Ian time. Who ran faster?
Leona [35]

Curt because if his time was 8/9 of Ian's time then that means he ran the mile in a fraction of Ian's time, so he finished the mile quicker. Curt ran faster.
