Meanwhile, at the ballpark Juan was practicing his hitting while talking to the girls standing around watching. He started telli

ng them how he hit the ball over the 50 foot light tower yesterday. The girls were unsure that he really did that. The formula for this hit is:
H(x)=-16x^2+60x+4 where h is the height of the ball and x is the number of seconds the ball is in the air. How high did Juan actually hit the ball?

Answer:

5.2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the value of x when h(x) = 0

:

-16x^2 +83x + 4 = 0

:

use quadratic formula to determine the value for x

:

x = ( -83 + sqrt(83^2 - 4*(-16)*4) ) / (2*(-16) = −0.047753182

:

x = ( -83 - sqrt(83^2 - 4*(-16)*4) ) / (2*(-16) = 5.235253182

:

we want the positive value for x since time runs forward

:

the ball hung in the air for approx 5.2 seconds

70% of voters in a certain state support an increase in the minimum wage. A researcher believe that the percentage of fast food
Artist 52 [7]
<h2><u>Answer with explanation:</u></h2>

Let p be the proportion of voters in a certain state support an increase in the minimum wage.

As per given , we have

H_0: p =0.70\\\\ H_a: p >0.70

Since alternative hypothesis is right-tailed so the test is a right-tailed test.

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}

, where n= sample size.

p= population proportion.

\hat{p} = sample proportion.

. In a random sample of 300 fast food workers for 240 supporters increase an minimum-wage.

i.e. n= 300 and \hat{p}=\dfrac{240}{300}=0.8

Then,

z=\dfrac{0.8-0.7}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.7(1-0.7)}{300}}}\approx3.78

For significant level α = .05 , the critical z-value is

z_{0.05}=1.645

Decision : Since calculated z-value (3.78) is greater than the critical value (1.645) , so we reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion : We have sufficient evidence o support researcher's claim that  that the percentage of fast food workers for support and increase is higher than 70%..

The discriminant of the function is
inessss [21]
Discriminant of a Quadratic

The number D = b2 – 4ac determined from the coefficients of the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. The discriminant reveals what type of roots the equation has.

Note: b2 – 4ac comes from the quadratic formula.
