First step when finding the mean is to add all the values together
7 + -9 + 6 + -10 + -13 + -5
To make this easier, first add all the positive numbers 7 + 6 = 13
Then add (basically take away) the minus values one by one
13 - 9 = 4
4 - 10 = -6
-6 - 13 = -19
-19 - 5 = -24
Next step is to divide this total by the number of values there were
In this case, there were 6 values
-24 / 6 = -4
D. -4
Number 3, because if you replace x for 1 then you get zero. and because it is rise over run then the run is 0. it is the only line with a run of 0
• The ball is at the same height as the building between 8 and 10 seconds after it is thrown. TRUE - the height is zero somewhere in that interval, hence the ball is the same height from which it was thrown, the height of the roof of the building.
• The height of the ball decreases and then increases. FALSE - at t=2, the height is greater than at t=0.
• The ball reaches its maximum height about 4 seconds after it is thrown. TRUE - the largest number in the table corresponds to t=4.
• The ball hits the ground between 8 and 10 seconds after it is thrown. FALSE - see statement 1.
• The height of the building is 81.6 meters. FALSE - the maximum height above the building is 81.6 meters. Since the ball continues its travel to a distance 225.6 meters below the roof of the building, the building is at least that high.
