Special air bags are used to protect scientific equipment when a rover lands on the surface of Mars. On Earth, the function appr

oximates an object's downward speed in feet per second as the object hits the ground after bouncing x ft in height. The corresponding function for Mars is compressed vertically by a factor of about 2/3. Estimate to the nearest tenth how fast a rover will hit Mars' surface after a bounce of 15 ft in height.

The nearest tenth of how fast a rover will hit Mars' surface after a bounce of 15 ft in height is 20.7ft/s.

<h3>What is the approximation about?</h3>

From the question:

Mars: F(x) = 2/3\sqrt{64x}

Therefore, If x = 15

Then:

f (15) =  2/3 \sqrt[8]{15}

= 16/3\sqrt{15}

= 20.7ft/s

Hence, The nearest tenth of how fast a rover will hit Mars' surface after a bounce of 15 ft in height is 20.7ft/s.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

limit is defined when the limit from both side are defined and equal to f

x-> -10^-, limit f(x)=-4-(-10)=6

f(-10)=6

x-> -10^+, limit f(x)=(-10)+16=6

Then

x->-10, limit f(x)=6

He nine ring wraiths want to fly from barad-dur to rivendell. rivendell is directly north of barad-dur. the dark tower reports t
kiruha [24]

This problem is better understood with a given figure. Assuming that the flight is in a perfect northwest direction such that the angle is 45°, therefore I believe I have the correct figure to simulate the situation (see attached).

 

Now we are asked to find for the value of the hypotenuse (flight speed) given the angle and the side opposite to the angle. In this case, we use the sin function:

sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse

sin 45 = 68 miles per hr / flight

flight = 68 miles per hr / sin 45

<span>flight = 96.17 miles per hr</span>

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

The firs 3 observations are x, x+2, x+4

Mean = sum of data/samaple size

Mean = x+x+2+x+4/3

MEan = 3x+6/3

Mean = 3(x+2)/3

Mean = x+2

Hence the required mean is x+2

A leatherback sea turtles was swimming at 850 below sea level. He went 165 meters and then descendes 165 meters. Draw a number l
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let negative means the turtle position when descending and positive for going up. Therefore since the turtle was 850 meters below see level, it was at -850. It then moves 165 meters up, hence its new position is -685 meters (-850 + 165). Lastly it moves down 165 meters, hence its new position is -850 meters (-685 - 165)

b) The change in position is the sum of the movements = +165 - 165 = 0 meters.
