Hello!
The answer for A is:

The answer for B is: The rocket will hit the lake surface in 5 seconds.
<h2>Why?</h2>
Defining the terms:

So, replacing it in the quadratic equation (it's given to you in the exercise)\\



We are working with a quadratic equation, so we will have two possible results,

Now, we are asked to find the time, time can not be a negative value, we have to discard X1 (-1) since it's a negative value, knowing that, the rocket will hit the lake after 5 seconds.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
The probability that a manufactured ball will be rejected is 0.99, to two decimal places.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean weight is 16 Ibs. The standard deviation of the weights of all manufactured balls from the mean weight is 25. The distribution is normal. With a standard deviation this large, it is already obvious that there is a high probability of producing or having rejected balls. The weights of the balls produced here ranges from (16-25)Ibs to (16+25)Ibs.
That's -9Ibs to 41Ibs.
The minimum permissible weight is 15.68. Any ball with a lesser weight gets kicked out!
So the distance or difference between this figure and the mean is (16-15.68) = 0.32
So the probability of obtaining less than 15.68Ibs or the probability of having balls between the lower boundary of -9Ibs and 15.68 is:
25-0.32 = 24.68
24.68 ÷ 25 = 0.9872 ~ 0.99 to two decimal places.
Probably the property of subtraction.

Its 0.14285714 thats the answer
Call the production cost 'C', the revenue 'R' and the number of CDs 'n':
C=2000+5n
R=10n
By definition Profit P = R-C, therefore P=10n-2000+5n = 5n-2000.
