Answer:

The average rate of change of the height A_{rate}=1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of a function is given by:

A_{rate}=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Where:

f(x) is the funtion, in our case f(x) = y = -0.05x^{2}+3.2x+8

f(b) is the function evaluated in b, when b = 20

f(a) is the funtion evaluated in a, when a = 8

Let's find f(a) and f(b):

f(8) = -0.05(8)^{2}+3.2(8)+8=30.4

f(20) = -0.05(20)^{2}+3.2(20)+8=52

Therefore, using the average rate of change equation.

A_{rate}=\frac{52-30.4}{20-8}=1.8

I hope it helps you!

Aleksandr [31]
E) 12 minutes

A normal curve has approximately 95% of graph between mean - 2sd and mean + 2sd
So 95% of the times will be between 0 and 12 minutes. 6 - 2x3 to 6 + 2x3
2.5% will take over 12 minutes

Strangely 2.5% will also take less than 0 minutes to process which shows the normal curve is not perfect in this example.
