Answer:

1/2 or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Saying that there is a 50-50 chance of an event happening is equivalent to saying there is a 1 in 2 chance. Therefore, expressing that degree of likelihood as a value between 0 and 1:

$\frac{1}{2}=0.50$

There is a 1/2 or 0.5 chance that a randomly selected adult has pierced ears.

A rocket is launched straight up from the ground with an initial velocity of 192 feet per second. The equation for the height of

Ivenika [448]

The equation for the height of the rocket at time t given

$h= -16t^2+192t$

We have to find the time t, when the rocket reaches 560 feet.

That means we have to find t when h = 560 ft. we will place 560 in the place of h to find t now.

$h= -16t^2+192t$

$560 = -16t^2+192t$

In the right side, we can check -16 is the common factor. So we will take out -16 from the rigbht side.

$560 = -16(t^2 - 12t)$

To get rid of -16 from the right side and move it to left side, we will divide both sides by -16.

$560/-16 = -16(t^2-12t)/-16$

$-35 = t^2 -12t$

Now we will move -35 to the righ side by adding 35 to both sides.

$-35+35 = t^2-12t+35$

$0 = t^2 -12t+35$

$t^2-12t+35 = 0$

We will factorize thee left side to find the values of t now. We need to find a pair of factors of 35 that by adding them we will get -12.

The pair of factors of 35 are -5 and -7 and by adding -5-7 we will get -12.

$t^2-12t+35 =0$

$(t-5)(t-7) =0$

So by using zero product property we will get

$t-5 =0$

$t-5+5 = 0+5$

$t=5$

Also $t-7 =0$

$t-7+7 = 0+7$

$t=7$

So we have got the rocket reaches at 560ft when t = 5 seconds and also when t = 7 seconds.

Now part b.

When the rocket completes its trajectory and hits the ground then the height or h = 0. So we will place h = 0 there in the equation.

$h= -16t^2+192t$

$0= -16t^2 + 192 t$

$0 = -16(t^2-12t)$

$-16(t^2-12t) = 0$

We will move -16 to the other side by dividing it to both sides.

$-16(t^2-12t)/-16 = 0/-16$

$t^2-12t = 0$

We will take out the common factor t from the left side. By taking out t we will get,

$t(t-12) = 0$

We will use zero product property now. By using that we will get,

$t = 0$

ans also $t-12 = 0$

$t-12+12 = 0+12$

$t = 12$

When the rocket completes its trajectory and hits the ground the time t can not be 0. When t =0, the rocket starts the trajectory.

So when the rocket completes its trajectory and hits the ground ,

then t = 12seconds.

So we have got the required answers.

What numbers round up and down to 600

yaroslaw [1]

The numbers that round up to 600 and have one decimal place are-
599.5
599.6
599.7
599.8
599.9
The numbers that round down to 600 and have one decimal place are-
600.1
600.2
600.3
<span>600.4
As far as numbers with more than one decimal place that round to 600, there is an infinite number. For example, 600.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000</span>0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 rounds down to 600.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.
