Question

The top of an electricity pole is supported by a rope of length 5 feet from the base of the pole. If the rope is one foot longer than the height of the pole,

i.Draw a diagram to illustrate the statement aboveii.Find the height of the electricity pole

iii.The length of the rope.

b)Throwing a rock upward from 160 feet above the ocean, the functionh(t)=−16t2+48t+160models the height(h)of the rock above the ocean as a function of time(t). Find:i.the zeros of this function which tell us when the rock will hit the oceanii.when the rock will be 160 feet above the ocean

.Discuss the difference between mean and mean deviation. Give an example of each of them.
