Answer:

  • Josh's book lands first
  • Ben's lands about 0.648 seconds later

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given equation for v=60 and s=40, the height of Ben's book is ...

  h(t) = -16t² +60t +40

We want to find t when h(t) = 0, so we're looking for the solution to ....

  0 = -16t² +60t +40

Using the quadratic formula, we find the positive value of t to be ...

  t = (-60 -√(60² -4(-16)(40)))/(2(-16)) = (15 +√385)/8 ≈ 4.3277

__

Similarly, the height of Josh's book is ...

  0 = -16t² +48t +40

  t = (-48 -√(48² -4(-16)(40)))/(2(-16)) = (12 +√304)/8 ≈ 3.6794

__

The time before Josh's book lands is shorter by ...

  4.3277 -3.6794 ≈ 0.6482 . . . . . seconds

Josh's book reaches the ground first, by about 0.648 seconds.

Which data set has an outlier? 25, 36, 44, 51, 62, 77 3, 3, 3, 7, 9, 9, 10, 14 8, 17, 18, 20, 20, 21, 23, 26, 31, 39 63, 65, 66,

It's hard to tell where one set ends and the next starts.  I think it's

A. 25, 36, 44, 51, 62, 77

B. 3, 3, 3, 7, 9, 9, 10, 14

C. 8, 17, 18, 20, 20, 21, 23, 26, 31, 39

D. 63, 65, 66, 69, 71, 78, 80, 81, 82, 82
Let's go through them.

A. 25, 36, 44, 51, 62, 77

That looks OK, standard deviation around 20, mean around 50, points with 2 standard deviations of the mean.

B. 3, 3, 3, 7, 9, 9, 10, 14

Average around 7, sigma around 4, within 2 sigma, seems ok.

C. 8, 17, 18, 20, 20, 21, 23, 26, 31, 39

Average around 20, sigma around 8, that 39 is hanging out there past two sigma.  Let's reserve judgement and compare to the next one.


D. 63, 65, 66, 69, 71, 78, 80, 81, 82, 82

Average around 74, sigma 8, seems very tight.

I guess we conclude C has the outlier 39.  That one doesn't seem like much of an outlier to me; I was looking for a lone point hanging out at five or six sigma.

The solution to the equation r(1 - 2cosФ) = 1 is given as x² + y² - 4x√(x² + y²)  + 4x² = 1

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

In polar form:

r = √(x² + y²) and cosФ = x / √(x² + y²)

Hence:

r(1 - 2cosФ) = 1

√(x² + y²) [1 - 2(x / √(x² + y²))] = 1

√(x² + y²) - 2x = 1

Take square of both sides:

x² + y² - 4x√(x² + y²)  + 4x² = 1

The solution to the equation r(1 - 2cosФ) = 1 is given as x² + y² - 4x√(x² + y²)  + 4x² = 1
