During with interval was the bicyclists speed the greatest?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fudgin [204]3 years ago
4 0

check the picture below.

namely, which of those intervals has the steepest slope, recall slope = average rate of change.

now, from the picture, notice, those two there are the steepest, the other three are leaning too much to the "ground".

so, from those two, which is the steepest anyway?  let's check their slope.


\bf \stackrel{\textit{from the 6th to the 8th hour}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{104})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{146})} \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{146-104}{8-2}\implies \cfrac{42}{2}\implies 21~~\bigotimes \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}

\bf \stackrel{\textit{from the 1st to the 2nd hour}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{12})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{34})} \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{34-12}{2-1}\implies \cfrac{22}{1}\implies 22~~\checkmark

The 5th term in a geometric sequence is 40. The 7th term is 10. What is (are) the possible value(s) of the 4th term?
Lena [83]

Answer:

possible values of 4th term is 80 & - 80

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of a geometric series is given by

a(n)=ar^{n-1}

Where a(n) is the nth term, r is the common ratio (a term divided by the term before it) and n is the number of term

  • Given, 5th term is 40, we can write:

ar^{5-1}=40\\ar^4=40

  • Given, 7th term is 10, we can write:

ar^{7-1}=10\\ar^6=10

We can solve for a in the first equation as:

ar^4=40\\a=\frac{40}{r^4}

<em>Now we can plug this into a of the 2nd equation:</em>

<em>ar^6=10\\(\frac{40}{r^4})r^6=10\\40r^2=10\\r^2=\frac{10}{40}\\r^2=\frac{1}{4}\\r=+-\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \\r=\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2}</em>

<em />

<em>Let's solve for a:</em>

<em>a=\frac{40}{r^4}\\a=\frac{40}{(\frac{1}{2})^4}\\a=640</em>

<em />

Now, using the general formula of a term, we know that 4th term is:

4th term = ar^3

<u>Plugging in a = 640 and r = 1/2 and -1/2 respectively, we get 2 possible values of 4th term as:</u>

ar^3\\1.(640)(\frac{1}{2})^3=80\\2.(640)(-\frac{1}{2})^3=-80

possible values of 4th term is 80 & - 80

What’s the combined average of Altuve’s weighted average below:
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

<em>The combined average of Altuve's weighted averages is 1 for 2 or 1/2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Combined Average</u>

On Friday, Altuve had 3 out of 5 successes

On Saturday, Altuve had 2 out of 4 successes

On Friday, Altuve had 1 out of 3 successes

The total successes are 3+2+1=6

The total tries are 5+4+3=12

The combined average is:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{6}{12}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{1}{2}

The combined average of Altuve's weighted averages is 1 for 2 or 1/2

diamong [38]
Okay, so he started out with 45 lbs. 

Let's make 40% into a decimal. 

40%= .4

I would multiply .4 to 45.
 18.

Add 18 to 45 to get the answer.

The original weight of his bag was 63 pounds.
