During batting practice, two pop flies are hit from the same location, 2 s apart. The paths are modeled by the equations h = -16

t2 + 56t and h = -16t2 + 156t - 248, where t is the time that has passed since the first ball was hit.
Explain how to find the height at which the balls meet. Then find the height to the nearest tenth.

Sample response: Use substitution to set the equations equal to each other. Solve the resulting linear equation for time, t = 2.48 s. Substitute 2.48 into an equation to find the height, h.

To find the time at which both balls are at the same height, set the equations equal to each other then solve for t.
h = -16t^2 + 56t
h = -16t^2 + 156t - 248
-16t^2 + 56t = -16t^2 + 156t - 248
You can cancel out the -16t^2's to get
56t = 156t - 248
=> 0 = 100t - 248
=> 248 = 100t
=> 2.48 = t
Using this time value, plug into either equation to find the height.
h = 16(2.48)^2 + 56(2.48)
Final answer:
h = 40.4736
Hope I helped :)

Joel maps his house and his school on a coordinate grid where each unit is 1 block. His school is at (-7, -2). His house is at (
zhenek [66]

Answer:

10 blocks

Step-by-step explanation

check the image attached, the y coordinate of  his school and house are the same that is, -2 so all we have to do is check the distance between x coordinates

that is , -7 and 3

distance between school and his house = 3 - (-7) = 10 blocks

There is a relationship between confidence interval and standard deviation:
\theta=\overline{x} \pm \frac{z\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}
Where \overline{x} is the mean, \sigma is standard deviation, and n is number of data points.
Every confidence interval has associated z value. This can be found online.
We need to find the standard deviation first: 
\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum(x-\overline{x})^2}{n}
When we do all the calculations we find that:
\overline{x}=123.8\\ \sigma=11.84
Now we can find confidence intervals:
($90\%,z=1.645): \theta=123.8 \pm \frac{1.645\cdot 11.84}{\sqrt{15}}=123.8 \pm5.0\\($95\%,z=1.960): \theta=123.8 \pm \frac{1.960\cdot 11.84}{\sqrt{15}}=123.8 \pm 5.99\\ ($99\%,z=2.576): \theta=123.8 \pm \frac{2.576\cdot 11.84}{\sqrt{15}}=123.8 \pm 7.87\\
We can see that as confidence interval increases so does the error margin. Z values accociated with each confidence intreval also get bigger as confidence interval increases.
Here is the link to the spreadsheet with standard deviation calculation:

The total cost of an item including sales tax is directly proportional to its price. If the total cost of a $32 item is $33.60 ,
pav-90 [236]
Let the total cost of the item be represented by C and the price be represented by P, then given that t<span>he total cost of an item including sales tax is directly proportional to its price, thus</span>

C\propto P \\  \\ \Rightarrow C=kP

where k is a constant.

Given that <span>the total cost of a $32 item is $33.60, thus

33.60=32k \\  \\ \Rightarrow k= \frac{33.60}{32} =1.05

Therefore, the total cost on a $55 item is given by

C=1.05\times55=\$57.75</span>
