Answer: The ball hits the ground at 5 s
Step-by-step explanation:
The question seems incomplete and there is not enough data. However, we can work with the following function to understand this problem:
(1)
Where
models the height of the ball in meters and
the time.
Now, let's find the time
when the ball Sara kicked hits the ground (this is when
):
(2)
Rearranging the equation:
(3)
Dividing both sides of the equation by
:
(4)
This quadratic equation can be written in the form
, and can be solved with the following formula:
(5)
Where:
Substituting the known values:
(6)
Solving we have the following result:
This means the ball hit the ground 5 seconds after it was kicked by Sara.
2.9% OF the 500 phones are more than likely defective. In order to figure this out you must do 500*0.029 which would equal 14.5 and rounds off to 15. 15 out of the 500 phones will maybe be defective.
