Answer:

13.567%

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question, using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 23.1 ounces

μ is the population mean = 22.0 ounces

σ is the population standard deviation = 1.0 ounce

More than = Greater than with the sign = >

Hence, for x > 23.1 ounces

z = 23.1 - 22.0/1.0

= 1.1

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<23.1) = 0.86433

P(x>23.1) = 1 - P(x<23.1)

P(x>23.1) = 1 - 0.86433

P(x>23.1) = 0.13567

Converting to percentage

= 0.13567 × 100

= 13.567%

Therefore, the percentage of regulation basketballs that weigh more than 23.1 ounces is 13.567%

A rocket is launched at 85 ft./s from a launch pad that’s 28 feet above the ground. which equation can be used to determine the
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

h(t)=-16t^2+85t+28  is equation of height of rocket.

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A rocket is launched with speed 85 ft/s from a height 28  feet.

Launching a rocket follows the path of parabola. The equation of rocket should be parabolic.

Parabolic equation of rocket is

Formula: h(t)=\dfrac{1}2gt^2+v_0t+h_0

g ⇒ acceleration due to gravity (-32 ft/s)

v ⇒ Initial velocity (v_0=85\ ft/s)

h ⇒ Initial height (h_0=28\ feet)

h(t) ⇒ function of height at any time t

Substitute the given values into formula

h(t)=\frac{1}{2}(-32)t^2+(85)t+28

h(t)=-16t^2+85t+28

D is correct.

Question Help!<br><br> Factor the trinomial completely.<br><br> x squared + 2x -8
blsea [12.9K]
X^2 + 2x -8
The factors of 8 are 2 and 4, and to get 2x we need 2 and 4 to either add up to or subtract to result in 2.
4 - 2 = 2. We also know this is right because 4 x -2 = -8. So the answer is:
(x + 4)(x - 2)

A pizza place near your office has small cheese pizzas for $4 and small pepperoni pizzas for $5. You are going to pick up pizzas
harina [27]
First set up two equations: 4c+5p=65. C+p=14. Solve one equation and sub it in for the other: C=14-p: 4(14-p)+5p=65, 56-4p+5p=65, p=9. Sub in what you now know: c+9=14, c=5. Check both equations to make sure it's right and you get: Pepperoni=9 cheese=5 :) hope this helps!
