Answer:

25 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Skydiving.  

height (in feet) above the earth=h(t)= -16t^2 + 10,000

the time it would take to fall when h is 0  

-16t^2 + 10,000=0

-16t^2=-10000

16t^2=10000

t^2=10000/16=625

t=sqrt 625=25 seconds

Solve each equation. Check your solution.<br> 4t - 2 = 14
anyanavicka [17]
T = 4. first, you can add 2 to both sides of the equation. you get 4t = 16. then, you can divide both sides by 4 to isolate t.

A population of values has a normal distribution with μ = 155.4 and σ = 49.5 . You intend to draw a random sample of size n = 24
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a single randomly selected value lies between 158.6 and 159.2 is 0.004.

(b) The probability that a sample mean is between 158.6 and 159.2 is 0.0411.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> follow a Normal distribution with parameters <em>μ</em> = 155.4 and <em>σ</em> = 49.5.

(a)

Compute the probability that a single randomly selected value lies between 158.6 and 159.2 as follows:

P(158.6 < X

*Use a standard normal table.

Thus, the probability that a single randomly selected value lies between 158.6 and 159.2 is 0.004.

(b)

A sample of <em>n</em> = 246 is selected.

Compute the probability that a sample mean is between 158.6 and 159.2 as follows:

P(158.6 < \bar X

*Use a standard normal table.

Thus, the probability that a sample mean is between 158.6 and 159.2 is 0.0411.

A source of laser light sends rays AB and AC toward two opposite walls of a hall. The light rays strike the walls at points B an
____ [38]

Answer: 70  meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe the figure attached.

The distance between the walls is:

DE=AD+AE

<em />

Both triangles are right triangles. Therefore, you can calculate the distance  between the walls as following:

- Calculate the distance AD:

cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\cos(60\°)=\frac{AD}{60}\\AD=30m

- Calculate the distance AE:

tan\beta =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}\\\\tan(45\°)=\frac{40}{AE}\\\\AE=\frac{40}{tan(45\°)}\\\\AE=40m

Therefore the distance between the walls is:

DE=30m+40m=70m
