The distance that an object falls when it is dropped is directly proportional to the square of the amount of time since it was dropped. An object falls 288 feet in 3
seconds. Find the distance the object falls in 4 seconds

After 4 seconds, the object will have fallen 512 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the distance that an object falls when it is dropped is directly proportional to the square of the amount of time since it was dropped, to determine, if an object falls 288 feet in 3

seconds, the distance the object falls in 4 seconds, the following calculation must be performed:

288/3 ^ 2 = X

288/9 = X

32 = X

X / 4 ^ 2 = 32

X / 16 = 32

X = 32 x 16

X = 512

Thus, after 4 seconds, the object will have fallen 512 feet.

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.
