Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the function of the height of a rocket after t seconds is:

h(t)=-9.8t^2+107.8t

We want to find the interval of time such that the rocket is higher than 294 meters.

So, substitute 294 for h(t) and solve for t:

294=-9.8t^2+107.8t

Just as it happens, everything is divisible by -9.8. So, divide everything by -9.8. This yields:

-30=t^2-11t

Add 30 to both sides:

t^2-11t+30=0

Factor. We can use -6 and -5. So:

(t-6)(t-5)=0

Zero Product Property:

t-6=0\text{ or } t-5=0

Solve for each equation:

t=6\text{ or } t=5

So, our answers are 5 seconds and 6 seconds.

Therefore, <em>between</em> the fifth and sixth second, the rocket is higher than 294 meters.

Note that at exactly the fifth and sixth second, our height is exactly 294 meters, not higher.

Therefore, we won't include 5 and 6 in our solution set.

As an inequality, this is:

5

In interval notation, this is:

(5,6)

And we're done!

Answer:

  • D. 156 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The full surface area is:</u>

  • S = Ph + 2B = (3 + 4 + 5)*12 + 2(1/2*3*4) = 144 + 12 = 156 cm²

A single die is rolled one time. Find the probability of rolling a number greater than 4 or less than 3.
Vika [28.1K]

<u>Answer: </u>

The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 or less than 3 is \frac{2}{3}

<u>Solution: </u>

In the given question there are two events as follows:

(a) Rolling a number greater than 4 i.e. A = {5,6}

(b) Rolling a number less than 3 i.e. B = {1,2}

Since a die has 6 numbers,

 P(A) = \frac{2}{6} where P(A) is the probability of occurrence of event A and P(B) = \frac{2}{6}

Since, Event A and Event B has nothing in common therefore they are mutually exclusive events.

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B)

=\frac{2}{6}+\frac{2}{6}

=\frac{4}{6}

=\frac{2}{3}

Therefore the probability of getting a number greater than 4 or less than 3 is \frac{2}{3}
