Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer can be found in the h value for the vertex of a parabola, (h, k). The k value is the max height and we were already given that information. We need to solve for h. There's an easy way and a really complicated way...I'll show you the easy way because it's actually quite useful to know, especially when doing a lot of work with quadratics!

The formula to find h is

h=\frac{-b}{2a} and in our quadratic, a = -16, b = 96 and c = 6. Filling in what we need:

h=\frac{-96}{2(-16)} so

h = 3

At 3 seconds the max height of 150 feet is reached.

I am an odd number I am less than 100 the sum of my digits is 12 I am a multiple of 15 what number am I
ivolga24 [154]

The answer is 75.


Let's look at your problem shall we:


Odd number: It should end with the numbers 1,3,5,7, and 9.

The number is less than 100: It should be from the number 1-99

Sum of digits: 12

Multiple of 15: 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90.


We can rule out 30, 60, and 90 because they are even.

1+5 = 6; 4+5=9; 7+5 = 12


You are left with 75.

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval would be given by (57.006;62.994)  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

\bar X=60 represent the sample mean  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)  

\sigma=10 represent the population standard deviation  

n=30 represent the sample size  

Assuming the X follows a normal distribution  

X \sim N(\mu, \sigma=10)

The sample mean \bar X is distributed on this way:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})  

The confidence interval on this case is given by:

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} (1)

The next step would be find the value of \z_{\alpha/2}, \alpha=1-0.90=0.1,\alpha/2 =0.05 and z_\alpha/2=1.64  

Using the normal standard table, excel or a calculator we see that:  

z_{\alpha/2}=1.64

Since we have all the values we can replace:

60 - 1.64\frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}=57.006  

60 + 1.64\frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}=62.994  

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (57.006;62.994)

Lian invested an amount of money at an interest rate of 5.2% per year.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

$6500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money invested by Lian be $x

Interest rate = 5.2% per year

interest earned in first year will be  5.2% of  amount of money invested by Lian .

(note: since in first year there will be no interest accrued on interest so interest for first year is simple interest )

interest earned in one year if money invested by Lian is $x

= 5.2% of $x  (1)

But , it is given in one year  she received interest of 338 dollars

so, 338 dollars must be equal to 5.2% of $x

equating $338 with  5.2% of $x  , we have

5.2% of x  = 338

=> (5.2/100) * x = 338

=>5.2 x = 338*100

=> x = 33800/5.2 = 6500.

Thus,  amount of money Lian invested is $6500.

A circle with radius of \greenD{5\,\text{cm}}5cmstart color #1fab54, 5, start text, c, m, end text, end color #1fab54 sits insid
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The area of the shaded region is 42.50 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the figure below.

The radius of the circle is, <em>r</em> = 5 cm.

The sides of the rectangle are:

<em>l</em> = 11 cm

<em>b</em> = 11 cm.

Compute the area of the shaded region as follows:

Area of the shaded region = Area of rectangle - Area of circle

                                            =[l\times b]-[\pi r^{2}]\\\\=[11\times 11]-[3.14\times 5\times 5]\\\\=121-78.50\\\\=42.50

Thus, the area of the shaded region is 42.50 cm².
