Answer:
help
Step-by-step explanation:
Hmmm the object, is at rest, when dropped, so it has a velocity of 0 ft/s
the only force acting on the object, is gravity, using feet will then be -32ft/s²,
was wondering myself on -32 or 32.. but anyhow... we'll settle for the negative value, since it seems to be just a bit of convention issues
so, we'll do the integral to get v(t) then

when will it reach the ground level? let's set s(t) = 0

part B) check the picture below
Answer:
9.18% probability the miners find more than 16 ounces of gold in the next 1000 tons of dirt excavated
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability the miners find more than 16 ounces of gold in the next 1000 tons of dirt excavated?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 16. So



has a pvalue of 0.9082
1 - 0.9082 = 0.0918
9.18% probability the miners find more than 16 ounces of gold in the next 1000 tons of dirt excavated
Substituting -3 for x, we have: (-3)^2-3*-3-7. This simplifies to 9+9-7, or 11.
