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.

Answer:

We need a sample size of least 119

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Sample size needed

At least n, in which n is found when M = 0.09

We don't know the proportion, so we use \pi = 0.5, which is when we would need the largest sample size.

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.09 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}

0.09\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.09}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.09})^{2}

n = 118.6

Rounding up

We need a sample size of least 119
