The correct answer is: h(t) = -5t + 500; from the table it is visible that the time difference is 5 seconds; the sign before 500 must be be "+", for we're talking about 500 feet above the ground. </span>

We are given that the elevator is descending, so the coefficient of t must be negative. The elevator's initial position is 500 feet above the ground, so this is a positive value of +500. Therefore the only choice that fits these is h(t) = -5t + 500.

Your friend's family moved to a town 300 miles from where you live. You and your friend decide to meet halfway between the two t
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

30 minutes earlier

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the friend lives 300 miles away, they each have to travel 150 miles which is half of that distance. If the friend travels at 50 miles per hour, they will take 3 hours to reach the destination. If you traveled 60 miles per hour, then you would take 2.5 hours, therefore making it there before him by half an hour.

150/50 = 3

150/60 = 2.5

hope this helps :^)

Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of 5 cm/s. At what rate (in cm2/s) is the area of the square increasing when the a
Naddika [18.5K]

The area of the square increasing at 30 \frac{cm^{2} }{sec}

The rate of change function is defined as the rate at which one quantity is changing with respect to another quantity. In simple terms, in the rate of change, the amount of change in one item is divided by the corresponding amount of change in another

Let the side of a square be x.

So,

Area of square = x^{2}

A =x^{2}

Differentiating with respect to time we get,

dA/dt = 2x dx/dt

When area = 9 cm^{2} the side becomes 3 cm

At x = 3cm and dx/dt = 5 cm/s (Given)

dA/dt = 2.3.5 = 30 \frac{cm^{2} }{sec}

Thus the area of the square increasing at 30 \frac{cm^{2} }{sec}
