Answer:

f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 4; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 4 meters from the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is a quadratic where t is time and f(t) is the height from the ground in meters. You can write the function f(t) = 4t2 − 8t + 8 in vertex form by completing the square. Complete the square by removing a GCF from 4t2 - 8t. Take the middle term and divide it in two. Add its square. Remember to subtract the square as well to maintain equality.

f(t) = 4t2 − 8t + 8

f(t) = 4(t2 - 2t) + 8                                  The middle term is -2t

f(t) = 4(t2 - 2t + 1) + 8 - 4                        -2t/2 = -1; -1^2 = 1

f(t) = 4(t-1)^2 + 4                                      Add 1 and subtract 4 since 4*1 = 4.

The vertex (1,4) means at a minimum the roller coaster is 4 meters from the ground.

  • f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 2 meters from the ground
  • f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 4 meters from the ground
  • f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 4; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 1 meter from the ground
  • f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 4; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 4 meters from the ground

Lúcia is using energy at a rate of 420 kilocalories (kcal) per hour (h) ice skating.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

7000 cal/min

Step-by-step explanation:

It is mentioned that, Lucia is using energy at a rate of 420 kilo calories per hour ice skating

We know that,

1 kilo calories = 1000 calories

Using unitary method :

420 kilo calories = 420,000 calories

Also,

1 hour = 60 minutes

In this case, Lucia is using energy per 60 minutes =  420,000 calories. So,energy used by her per minute is :

E=\frac{420000}{60} =7000 calories

Hence, Lucia is using 7000 calories per minute.

natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Population Mean = 7.1

sample size = 24

Sample mean = 7.3

Standard deviation = 1.0

Level of significance = 0.025

The null hypothesis:

H_o: \mu = 7.1

The alternative hypothesis:

H_a: \mu > 7.1

This test is right-tailed.

degree \ of \  freedom=  n - 1 \\ \\ degree \  of \  freedom  =  24 - 1 \\ \\ degree \ of \  freedom   = 23

Rejection region: at ∝ = 0.025 and df of 23, the critical value of the right-tailed test t_c = 2.069

The test statistics can be computed as:

t = \dfrac{ \hat X - \mu_o}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \dfrac{ 7.3-7.1}{\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{24}}}

t = \dfrac{0.2}{0.204}

t = 0.980

Decision rule:

Since the calculated value of t is lesser than, i.e t = 0.980 < t_c = 2.069, then we do not reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion:

We conclude that there is insufficient evidence to claim that the population mean is greater than 7.1 at 0.025 level of significance.
