A book falls from a shelf that is 5 feet above the floor. A model for the height h in feet if an object dropped from an initial

height of h₀ feet is h=-16t² + h₀, where t is the time in seconds after the object is dropped. Use this model to determine approximately how long it took for the book to reach the ground.

Answer:

About 0.559 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The height equation is:

h=-16t^2+h_0

Where h_0 is the initial height of the book, which is 5, so we can write:

h=-16t^2+5

Now, we want time it took for the book to reach ground (h = 0)

So, we substitute h = 0 and solve for t:

h=-16t^2+5\\0=-16t^2+5\\16t^2=5\\t^2=0.3125\\t=0.5590\\t=0.559

It took about 0.559 seconds for the book to reach the ground

If the homogeneity of variance assumption is violated in an independent groups t test, this means _________. the populations fro
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

the populations from which the samples were drawn have different standard deviations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the assumption of homogeneity of variance is the same as the assumption of the independent samples t-test which asserted that all comparison groups possess the same variance

Therefore, if the homogeneity of variance assumption is violated in an independent groups t-test, this means "the populations from which the samples were drawn have different standard deviations."

Leona [35]

Answer:

  20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The period is the value of t that makes the cosine argument change by 2π.

That value is ...

  2π = π/10t

  20 = t . . . . . . . multiply by 10/π

The period of the function is 20 seconds.
