Average rate of change is just the slope betwen the points
that is just the slope between (-3,-3) and (-4,-1)

slpe between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

so slope between (-3,-3) and (-4,-1) is (-1-(-3))/(-4-(-3))=(-1+3)/(-4+3)=2/-1=-2

the average rate of change is -2

I believe it's going to be -2

How do i find the measures of the angles

Over [174]

Do you have a protractor? If so, use it and place the center whole, that is located at the bottom, and place it on the dot of the angle. where the arrow hits, is your angle degree. You should be able to identify the angle type.

Answer:

The absolute value of the quadratic term, $\left | -\dfrac{1}{2} \right |$ is less than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is y = (-1/2)·x² - 7

The parent function is y = x²

The vertical compression or stretching of a quadratic function is given by the value of the coefficient, <em>a</em>, of the quadratic term, x² of a quadratic function, a·x²

A quadratic function is vertically compressed if the coefficient, $\left | a \right |$ < 1.

In the given function, y = (-1/2)·x² - 7, the absolute value of the coefficient of the quadratic term, $\left | -\dfrac{1}{2} \right |$ < 1, therefore, the equation, y = (-1/2)·x² - 7, will be vertically compressed compared to the parent function, y = x².

(5) Find the Laplace transform of the following time functions: (a) f(t) = 20.5 + 10t + t 2 + δ(t), where δ(t) is the unit impul

Aloiza [94]

Answer

(a) $F(s) = \frac{20.5}{s} - \frac{10}{s^2} - \frac{2}{s^3}$

(b) $F(s) = \frac{-1}{s + 1} - \frac{4}{s + 4} - \frac{4}{9(s + 1)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) $f(t) = 20.5 + 10t + t^2 +$ δ(t)

where δ(t) = unit impulse function

The Laplace transform of function f(t) is given as:

$F(s) = \int\limits^a_0 f(s)e^{-st} \, dt$

where a = ∞

=> $F(s) = \int\limits^a_0 {(20.5 + 10t + t^2 + d(t))e^{-st} \, dt$

where d(t) = δ(t)

=> $F(s) = \int\limits^a_0 {(20.5e^{-st} + 10te^{-st} + t^2e^{-st} + d(t)e^{-st}) \, dt$

Integrating, we have:

=> $F(s) = (20.5\frac{e^{-st}}{s} - 10\frac{(t + 1)e^{-st}}{s^2} - \frac{(st(st + 2) + 2)e^{-st}}{s^3} )\left \{ {{a} \atop {0}} \right.$

Inputting the boundary conditions t = a = ∞, t = 0:

$F(s) = \frac{20.5}{s} - \frac{10}{s^2} - \frac{2}{s^3}$

(b) $f(t) = e^{-t} + 4e^{-4t} + te^{-3t}$

The Laplace transform of function f(t) is given as:

$F(s) = \int\limits^a_0 (e^{-t} + 4e^{-4t} + te^{-3t} )e^{-st} \, dt$

$F(s) = \int\limits^a_0 (e^{-t}e^{-st} + 4e^{-4t}e^{-st} + te^{-3t}e^{-st} ) \, dt$

$F(s) = \int\limits^a_0 (e^{-t(1 + s)} + 4e^{-t(4 + s)} + te^{-t(3 + s)} ) \, dt$

Integrating, we have:

$F(s) = [\frac{-e^{-(s + 1)t}} {s + 1} - \frac{4e^{-(s + 4)}}{s + 4} - \frac{(3(s + 1)t + 1)e^{-3(s + 1)t})}{9(s + 1)^2}] \left \{ {{a} \atop {0}} \right.$
