A rock is dropped from a height of 100 feet. Calculate the time between when the rock was dropped and when it landed. If we choo

se "down" as positive and ignore air friction, the
function is h(t) = 16t^2 – 100.

A)t = 2.5 seconds

B)t = 6.25 seconds

C)t = 10 seconds

D)t = 12.5

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the rock lands when it reaches height 0.

so, for what t is h(t) = 0 ?

16t² - 100 = 0

16t² = 100

now we pull the square root on both sides (we can ignore the negative solutions, as negative seconds don't make any sense in our scenario)

4t = 10

t = 10/4 = 5/2 = 2.5 seconds

so, A is correct.

What is the median and mode
viktelen [127]
Median is the middle number

60, 60, 65, 70, 70, 85, 90

70 is your median

mode is the number(s) that show up the most
60 and 70 is your mode, since they show up twice (one more than the others)

Range is largest number minus the smallest
90 - 60 = 30, 30 is your range

Mean is all the numbers added together divided by the number of numbers there are 
60 + 90 + 65 + 70 + 70 + 85 + 60 = 500
500/7 = 71.42
Mean = 71.42

hope this helps
