The unit rate of the parachutist change in height is 11 feet per second.

• In Mathematics, Unitary method is a technique for solving a question by first finding the value of a single unit and then finding the required value by multiplying the number by value of single unit .

• We use unitary method to find the ratio of one thing with respect to other thing.

• There are two types of unitary method one is Direct Variation and the other is Inverse variation.

We have the rate of descend as 44 feet in 4 sec.

So, in 1 second it will be = 44 / 4 = 11 feet.

Which is the unit rate.

Therefore, the unit rate of descend for the parachutist is 11 feet per second.

In January Jennifer was allowed to use 150 text messages. If she is allowed to use the same amount of text messages every month.

Firlakuza [10]

She would have used 1200 messages in all by the month of August.

Step-by-step explanation:

Messages allowed per month = 150

There will be 8 months starting from January to August, therefore,

Time period = 8 months

Messages in 8 months = Messages per month * Time period

$Messages\ in\ 8\ months=150*8\\Messages\ in\ 8\ months=1200$

She would have used 1200 messages in all by the month of August.

Answer:

8.5 Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: $c = \sqrt{a^{2} +b^{2} }$

a = 6

b = 6

Therefore: $c = \sqrt{6^{2} +6^{2} }$ = 8.485

The path is 8.5 yards long

frez [133]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

Here { a, b ] = [ - 1, 2 ], thus

f(b) = 4 ← from (2, 4 )

f(a) = $\frac{1}{2}$ ← from (- 1, $\frac{1}{2}$ ) , thus

average rate of change = $\frac{4-\frac{1}{2} }{2-(-1)}$ = $\frac{\frac{7}{2} }{3}$ = $\frac{7}{6}$ → D
