The sequence is geometric and the common ratio is 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the 30 year olds are more likely to pick chocolate as their favorite ice cream because the fraction of people who like chocolate is 14/20 where the other 3 are 4/20 and 2/20. this can be converted into percentages as well by multipling by 5. 70% of people who are in their 30s like chocolate opposed to the 20% and 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:
I see you're in college math, so we'll solve this with calculus, since it's the easiest way anyway.
The position equation is
That equation will give us the height of the rock at ANY TIME during its travels. I could find the height at 2 seconds by plugging in a 2 for t; I could find the height at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t, etc.
The first derivative of position is velocity:
v(t) = -3.72t + 15 and you stated that the rock will be at its max height when the velocity is 0, so we plug in a 0 for v(t):
0 = -3.72t + 15 and solve for t:\
-15 = -3.72t so
t = 4.03 seconds. This is how long it takes to get to its max height. Knowing that, we can plug 4.03 seconds into the position equation to find the height at 4.03 seconds:
s(4.03) = -1.86(4.03)² + 15(4.03) so
s(4.03) = 30.2 meters.
Calculus is amazing. Much easier than most methods to solve problems like this.
