30 inches is longer than 2 feet
Hi there!
The derivative of the function is the slope of the function at a specific x-value, or its instantaneous rate of change.
For example, take the equation y = x².
Using the power rule, we get:
y' = 2x
If we plug in any x-value into this equation, we can find the slope of the function at any point.
Ex:
x = 0; 2(0) = slope of 0
x = 2; 2(2) = slope of 4
Answer:
(2 decimal places)
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic Formula: 
-----------------------------------------------
Plug in values:
First value of x:
(2 decimal places)
Second value of x:
(2 decimal places)
From the diagram associated with this question it can be seen that the first bounce was 1 units high, thus the second bounce is 1 / 2 = 0.5 units high and the third bounce is 0.5 / 2 = 0.25 = 1/4 units high.
Given that B represents the second bounce and C represents the first bounce, the <span>fractions in hundredths that should be written at points B is 0.50 while at point C is 0.25</span>
