Answer:

t = 54 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that models the path of a rocket into the air is given by :

h(t)= -16t^2+864t

It is required to find the time after which the rocket will hit the ground. When it hits the ground, the height of the rocket will becomes zero. It means,

h(t) = 0

i.e.

-16t^2+864t=0\\\\16t(-t+54)=0\\\\16t=0, -t+54=0\\\\t=0\ and\ t=54\ s

It means after 54 seconds, the rocket will hit the ground.

Arlecino [84]

Please write that as 4.321 × 10^(−4).  The " ^ " indicates exponentiation and the parentheses help make clear that your exponent here is a negative one.

Rewrite 4.321 × 10^(−4) by moving the decimal point 4 places to the left:

0.0004321

Suppose a 95% confidence interval for μ has been constructed. If it is decided to take a larger sample and to decrease the confi
sweet [91]

Answer:

decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sample statistics gathered would not change very much for the new sample

When it  is decided to take a larger sample, we find that automatically the margin of error decreases and hence confidence interval will become narrower.

When confidence level decreases then critical value decreases and hence margin of error decreases thus resulting in to decrease the confidence level,

Hence width would decrease.

i) Because of a larger sample size

ii) BEcause of decrease in confidence level.
