We can model the function between a and b as a linear function of negative slope because it is a short interval and the change is not very significant.
We have then that the average rate of change in that interval is:
m = (f (a) - f (b)) / (a-b)
Substituting the values:
m = (34.25 - 26) / (2.5-3.6)
m = -7.5
Negative, because the function decreases in that interval.
Answer:
a reasonable estimate of the average rate of change of the height of the rocket, in meters per second, between a and b seconds is:
m = -7.5 m / s
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4:7::4x:7x
4x+7x=231
11x=231
x=231/11=21
women=7x=7×21=147
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
let a = adults
so then 2a = children
a/2a(+a) = a/3a
The independent variable would be how long he works out and the dependent variable would be how many calories he burns
