Answer: C.) 1.12 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to substitute h=0 (when the rock hits the ground the height above it is 0) in the equation given:
h (t) = –16t2 + 20
Solving for t (time)
0= –16t2 + 20
16t2=20
t2=20/16
t=√1.25 =1.12 seconds (option C)

Answer:
640 foxes
Step-by-step explanation:
The actual formula is 
Now that we have the real formula we would need to find out how many 13 year periods exist in the 26 years that are being used in the question. We calculate this by simply dividing 26 by 13.
26 / 13 = 2 periods
Therefore, now that we know there are 2 periods of 13 years in the 26-year span, we plug this value into the formula and solve for y...




Finally, we can see that there should be 640 foxes after 26 years.

Answer:
a) .3607.
b) See explanation below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that the flight of the airline arrives on time is .775. The problem tells us that the events are independent and asks us what is the probability that 4 flights arrive on time.
Since the probability is independent we can simply multiply the probabilities of each flight arriving on time.
Probability that all 4 flights arrive on time = (.775)(.775)(.775)(.775) = 0.3607.
b) How realistic it is to assume that the on-time arrivals are independent?
This assumption is not very realistic, considering that if one flight is not on time, it will obviously affect all the other flights since the planes are constantly connected to each other and if the flights are using one same plane, the fact that this plane is not on-time will affect the next flight.
