Answer:

2.69 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

the function for the height and time is:

h(t)=-16t^2+116

when the object collides with the ground, it means that at that moment its height is zero. So we need to solve the equation above for when h(t) equals zero:

0=-16t^2+116

clearing for t:

-116=-16t^2\\\frac{-116}{-16}=t^2\\ 7.25=t^2\\\sqrt{7.25}=t\\ 2.69=t

the object will hit the ground at time 2.69 seconds

Let h(t)= 0 (because when it reaches the ground h=0)

0=-16t^2+116
16t^2=116
divide both sides by 16
t^2= 7.25
square root both sides to find t
t=2.69sec

The height of a sunflower is normally distributed with a mean of 14.2 feet and a standard deviation of 2.15. What is the probabi
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

0.153

Step-by-step explanation:

Chjmk

In this question, we are asked to calculate the probability of selecting a sunflower greater than a particular height.

What to do in this case is to first find the z-score based on this information given.

Mathematically,

Z-score = x- mean/standard deviation

Here, z-score will have a value of;

(16.4-14.2)/2.15 = 1.023

Therefore,

P(height >16.4ft) = P(Zscore >1.023) = 1-Fz(1.023) = 0.153

Please <br>Write the amounts in order from least to greatest: 1/20, 20%, 0.2 Show your work
asambeis [7]
1/20 = 0.05 (5%)
20% = 20%
0.2 = 20%

Order will be 1/20, 20%, 0.2 or 1/20, 0.2, 20%
