Every hour only 78% survive so we have the equation

35,542 = x(0.78)^4

x = 96,020 answer

The height h(n) of a bouncing ball is an exponential function of the number n of bounces.
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The height of a bouncing ball is defined by h(n) = 6\cdot \left(\frac{4}{6} \right)^{n-1}.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to this statement, we need to derive the expression of the height of a bouncing ball, that is, a function of the number of bounces. The exponential expression of the bouncing ball is of the form:

h = h_{o}\cdot r^{n-1}, n \in \mathbb{N}, 0 < r < 1 (1)

Where:

h_{o} - Height reached by the ball on the first bounce, measured in feet.

r - Decrease rate, no unit.

n - Number of bounces, no unit.

h - Height reached by the ball on the n-th bounce, measured in feet.

The decrease rate is the ratio between heights of two consecutive bounces, that is:

r = \frac{h_{1}}{h_{o}} (2)

Where h_{1} is the height reached by the ball on the second bounce, measured in feet.

If we know that h_{o} = 6\,ft and h_{1} = 4\,ft, then the expression for the height of the bouncing ball is:

h(n) = 6\cdot \left(\frac{4}{6} \right)^{n-1}

The height of a bouncing ball is defined by h(n) = 6\cdot \left(\frac{4}{6} \right)^{n-1}.

Considering the Central Limit Theorem, we have that:

a) The probability cannot be calculated, as the underlying distribution is not normal and the sample size is less than 30.

b) The probability can be calculated, as the sample size is greater than 30.

<h3>What does the Central Limit Theorem state?</h3>

It states that the sampling distribution of sample means of size n is approximately normal has standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}, as long as the underlying distribution is normal or the sample size is greater than 30.

In this problem, the underlying distribution is skewed right, that is, not normal, hence:

  • For item a, the probability cannot be calculated, as the underlying distribution is not normal and the sample size is less than 30.
  • For item b, the probability can be calculated, as the sample size is greater than 30.
