25a. You are given a formula for height and told that the value of "r" in the formula is 19.6. You are asked to find the value of t such that h = 14.7. Substitute the given values and solve for t the way you solve any quadratic equation.
14.7 = 19.6t -4.9t²
4.9t² -19.6t +14.7 = 0 . . . . . put the equation in standard form
4.9(t² -4t +3) = 0 . . . . . . . . . factor out 4.9 to simplify the numbers
(t -1)(t -3) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . .. divide by 4.9 and factor
The solutions to this are ...
t = 1, t = 3
After
1 second, the ball will reach the height of 14.7 meters.
25b. This question asks you to find the value of t that make h = 0.
0 = 19.6t -4.9t² . . . . . . substitute the given numbers
0 = 4.9t(4 -t) . . . . . . . . factor
The solutions to this are ...
t = 0, t = 4
The ball will hit the ground after
4 seconds.

As you can see from the graph below, a graphing calculator can be helpful for solving problems of this sort.
Answer:
C) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
Explanation:
The following multiple choice responses are provided to complete the question:
A) The Pearson correlation results should be reported because it shows a stronger correlation with a smaller p-value (more significant).
B) The Pearson correlation results should be reported because the two variables are normally distributed.
C) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
D) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because the p-value is closer to 0.0556.
Further Explanation:
A count variable is discrete because it consists of non-negative integers. The number of polyps variable is therefore a count variable and will most likely not be normally distributed. Normality of variables is one of the assumptions required to use Pearson correlation, however, Spearman's correlation does not rest upon an assumption of normality. Therefore, the Spearman correlation would be more appropriate to report because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
