The function h(t) = -16t2 + 48t + 28 models the height (in feet) of a ball where t is the time (in seconds).
1 answer:
Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>[using calculus] </em>When the function h(t) reaches its maximum value, its first derivative will be equal to zero (the first derivative represents velocity of the ball, which is instantaneously zero). We have , which equals zero when
. The ball therefore reaches its maximum height when t = 1.5. To find the maximum height, we need to find h(1.5), which is 64 feet.
<em>[without calculus] </em>This is a quadratic function, so its maximum value will occur at its vertex. The formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex is -b/2a, so the maximum value occurs when t = -48/(2*16), which is 1.5. The maximum height is h(1.5), which is 64 feet.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking for P(58 < x < 64). We need to find the percentage to the left of the z-scores for each of these numbers. To find the z scores, use the formula:
which gives us a z-score of -1. The percentage of numbers to the left of a z-score of -1 is .1586553
Now for the other z-score:
which gives us a z-score of .5. The percentage of numbers to the left of a z-score of .5 is .69146246
The lower percentage subtracted from the higher gives the area in question:
.69146246 - .1586553 = .53280716, or as a percentage, 53.3%, choice A.
