A gymnast dismounts the uneven parallel bars. Her height, h, depends on the time, t, that she is in the air h = −162 + 24t + 16.

How long will it take the gymnast to reach the ground?

That is when h=0
so assuming yo meant
h(t)=-16t²+24t+16
solve for t such that h(t)=0
because when height=0, the gymnast hits the ground

so
0=-16t²+24t+16
using math (imma complete the square
0=-16(t²-3/2t)+16
0=-16(t²-3/2t+9/16-9/16)+16
0=-16((t-3/4)²-9/16)+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+9+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+25
-25=-16(t-3/4)²
25/16=(t-3/4)²
sqrt both sides
+/-5/4=t-3/4
3/4+/-5/4=t
if we do plus (because minus would give us negative height)
8/4=t
2=t
it takes 2 seconds

Assuming that a computer has been used to compute a P-value = 0.01635, what can we conclude about the following situation? A sim
Arada [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, we would write the hypothesis.

For the null hypothesis,

H0 : µ = 70

For the null hypothesis,

Ha : µ > 70

This is a right tailed test because of the symbol of greater than.

The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if the level of significance is greater than the p value and accept the null hypothesis if the level of significance is lesser than the p value.

Therefore, since the significance level, 0.05 > p value, 0.01635, then we would reject the null hypothesis. There is enough evidence that the mean speed of all cars is greater than the posted speed limit of 70 mph.

Jill is standing at the base of her apartment building. She measures the angle of elevation to the top of a nearby tower to be 4
almond37 [142]
1) From the measure of 40°, you can write:

tan(40°) = 100/x, where x is the base from the building to the tower

⇒x=100/tan(40°) = 119,18 m

2) From the measure of 30°, you can write

tan(30°) = y / 119,18, where y is the height from the roof of Jill's building to the top of the tower.

Then, y = tan(30°) * 119,18 = 68,81 m

3) The height of Jill's building is 100 - 68,81 = 31,19 m

Leena walked 2/3 of a mile What is 2/3 written as a sum of unit fractions with the denominator of nine
aliya0001 [1]
Bear in mind that multiplying anything, and anything whatsoever by 1, has a product of the anything itself.

so, let's multiply 2/3 by 1 then and check about,

\bf \cfrac{same}{same}=1\qquad thus\cfrac{2}{3}\cdot 1\implies \cfrac{2}{3}\cdot \cfrac{3}{3}\implies \cfrac{6}{9}
\\\\\\
\textit{now, we can split that and write it as a sum}\implies \cfrac{1+5}{9}\implies \cfrac{1}{9}+\cfrac{5}{9}
