The table lists the speeds of the fastest roller coasters in North America and Asia.

kotykmax [81]

The difference of the means of the two data sets is = 4.57

The mean absolute deviation of the roller coaster speeds in North America is 13.3

The mean absolute deviation of the roller coaster speeds in Asia is 16.8

<h3>How to solve for the means</h3>

First we have to start with the data for North America

128, 120, 100, 93, 92, 80.8, 85, 82, 80, 77

To get the mean you have to sum up the values and divide through by the total number 10

937.8/10

Mean = 93.78

Mean Absolute Deviation = (128 - 93.78) + ( 120 - 93.78) + ( 100 - 93.78) + ( 93 - 93.78) + ( 92 - 93.78) + ( 80.8 - 93.78) + ( 85 - 93.78) + ( 82 - 93.78) + ( 80 - 93.78) + ( 77 - 93.78) / 10

133.32/10 = 13.3

For Asia, we have the data as

149.1, 106.9, 95, 83, 90, 80.3, 78.3, 71.5, 69.6, 68.4

Mean for Asia = 892.1/10

= 89.21

Mean Absolute Deviation = (149.1 - 89.21) + ( 106.9 - 89.21) + ( 95 - 89.21) + ( 83 - 89.21) + ( 90 - 89.21) + ( 80.3 - 89.21) + ( 78.3 - 89.21) + ( 71.5 - 89.21) + ( 69.6 - 89.21) + ( 68.4 - 89.21) / 10

= 168.32/10

16.8

The difference in the means = 93.78 -89.21

= 4.57

The height h (in feet) of an object dropped from a ledge after x seconds can be modeled by h(x)=−16x2+36 . The object is dropped

kakasveta [241]

Check the picture below.

$\bf ~~~~~~\textit{initial velocity in feet} \\\\ h(t) = -16t^2+v_ot+h_o \quad \begin{cases} v_o=\textit{initial velocity}&\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h_o=\textit{initial height}&\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h=\textit{object's height}&\\ \qquad \textit{at "t" seconds} \end{cases}$

so the object hits the ground when h(x) = 0, hmmm how long did it take to hit the ground the first time anyway?

$\bf h(x)=-16x^2+36\implies \stackrel{h(x)}{0}=-16x^2+36\implies 16x^2=36 \\\\\\ x^2=\cfrac{36}{16}\implies x^2 = \cfrac{9}{4}\implies x=\sqrt{\cfrac{9}{4}}\implies x=\cfrac{\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies x = \cfrac{3}{2}~~\textit{seconds}$

now, we know the 2nd time around it hit the ground, h(x) = 0, but it took less time, it took 0.5 or 1/2 second less, well, the first time it took 3/2, if we subtract 1/2 from it, we get 3/2 - 1/2 = 2/2 = 1, so it took only 1 second this time then, meaning x = 1.

$\bf ~~~~~~\textit{initial velocity in feet} \\\\ h(x) = -16x^2+v_ox+h_o \quad \begin{cases} v_o=\textit{initial velocity}&0\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h_o=\textit{initial height}&\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h=\textit{object's height}&0\\ \qquad \textit{at "t" seconds}\\ x=\textit{seconds}&1 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 0=-16(1)^2+0x+h_o\implies 0=-16+h_o\implies 16=h_o \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill h(x) = -16x^2+16~\hfill$

quick info:

in case you're wondering what's that pesky -16x² doing there, is gravity's pull in ft/s².

How is breaking apart the problem 16x34 like solving four simpler problems?

Inessa [10]

Since we know that 2*2*2*2=16 and 2*17=34, we can write it out as 2*2*2*2*2*17. Since 2*2=4, we can rewrite it as 4*4*2*17=16*2*17=32*17. To get this, we can separate 17 into (10+7) and using the distributive property we get 32(10+7)=32*10+32*7=320+224=544.

The four problems can be written as 16*2*17, then 32*17, then 32*(10+7), then 320+224
