Answer:
- 7.5 ft
- 32.5 ft, 5 ft
- 10.7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The starting height is h(0) = 7.5 feet, the constant in the quadratic function.
The irrigation system is positioned <u> 7.5 </u> feet above the ground
__
b) The axis of symmetry for quadratic ax^2 +bx +c is x = -b/(2a). For this quadratic, that is x=-10/(2(-1)) = 5. This is the horizontal distance to the point of maximum height. The maximum height is ...
h(5) = (-5 +10)(5) +7.5 = 32.5 . . . feet
The spray reaches a maximum height of <u> 32.5 </u> feet at a horizontal distance of <u> 5 </u> feet from the sprinkler head.
__
c) The maximum distance will be √32.5 + 5 ≈ 10.7 ft.
The spray reaches the ground at about <u> 10.7 </u> feet away.

Answer:
a) 48.408
b) 1.235
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The average hardness value xbar can be computed as
xbar=sum of values/number of values
xbar=(46.5+46.9+49.4+50.3+49.8+48.8+47+47.7+48.3+49.4+47.8+49)/12
xbar=580.9/12
xbar=48.408 (rounded to 3 decimal places).
The average hardness value is 48.408.
b)
The standard deviation hardness value s can be computed as
x x-xbar (x-xbar)

47.8 -0.60833 0.37007
49.0 0.59167 0.35007
Total 16.7692
s=1.235 (rounded to 3 decimal places)
The standard deviation hardness value is 1.235.
To find one tenth of 119.9 just divide 119.9 by 10
