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.

The product of two numbers is 192. what is the minimum value of the sum of the first value plus twice the second value
VARVARA [1.3K]
Let x and y be the two positive numbers. -  Their product is 192: x *  y  =  192   equation 1

-  the sum of the first plus twice the second is a minimum:  x + 2y

<span>From the first equation, y =  192 / x. 
Substitute that into the second equation:
</span>
 x + 2y = x + 2(<span>192/x ) = x + 384/x

</span>f(x) is minimum when f'(x) = 0 and f"(x) > 0 

f(x)= <span>x + 384/x
</span>
f(x) = 1-384/x^2 

<span>1-384  / x^2 =  0 

x^2-384 = 0 

x^ 2= 354
 x = radical  354    = 18.8  here i'm confused why the number is decimal

If the average weight for cats is 12
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

3 standard deviations

from the mean is 6 pounds to 18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question is solved using empirical rule

99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ

From the above question

μ = 12 pounds

σ = 2 pounds

Hence:.

3 standard deviations from the mean is calculated as

μ - 3σ

[12 - 3(2)] pounds

=( 12 - 6) pounds

= 6 pounds

μ + 3σ

[12 + 3(2)] pounds

=( 12 + 6) pounds

= 18 pounds

Hence,3 standard deviations

from the mean is 6 pounds to 18 pounds.
