Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$6(x - 1) = 9(x + 2)$

Expand :

$6(x - 1) = 6x - 6 \\ 9(x + 2) = 9x + 18$

$6x - 6 = 9x + 18$

Collect like terms and simplify

$6x - 9x = 18 + 6 \\ - 3x = 24$

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

$\frac{ - 3x}{ - 3} = \frac{24}{ - 3} \\ x = - 8$

a ball is dropped from the height of 64 feet. its height can be modeled by the function h(t)=-16t^2+64, where t is the time in s

puteri [66]

Answer:

It takes 1.323 seconds for the ball to fall by 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the ball dropped from a height of 64 ft is modeled by the equation:

h(t) = -16t² + 64 where t is the time in seconds.

To find the time it takes to fall 36 ft, we substitute h(t) too be 36 ft and then solve the resulting quadratic function.

Substituting h(t) to be 36 ft:

36 = -16t² + 64

multiply through by -1

-36 = 16t² - 64

add 36 to both sides

16t² -64 + 36 = -36 + 36

16t² - 28 = 0

add 28 to both sides

16t² - 28 + 28 = 0 +28

16t² = 28

Divide both sides by 28

16t²/16 = 28/16

t² = 1.75

Find squre root of both sides

√t² = √1.75

t = 1.323 seconds

It takes 1.323 seconds for the ball to fall by 36 feet

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Normal distribution with a mean of 7.2 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.1 minutes.

This means that $\mu = 7.2, \sigma = 2.1$
