"A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 80 meters per second. What is this rate in feet per second? At this rate, how m

any feet will the parachutist fall during 20 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers."
I'm suppose to find the rate in ft/s AND "distance in 20 seconds" in ft.

If anyone can help break this down for me, I'd greatly appreciate it. :)

Answer:

a)264 feet/ second

b)5280 feet during 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 80 meters per second.

Convert the rate in feet per second

We are given that meter is equal to 3.3 feet

So, So, rate in feet per second = 80 \times 3.3 = 264 feet/ second

So, parachutist fall in 1 second = 264 feet

Parachutist fall in 20 second = 264 \times 20 = 5280 feet

Hence the parachutist will fall 5280 feet during 20 seconds of free fall

Assuming 70 m/s is terminal velocity

1 meter = 3.3 ft 

so 70 meters = 231 

231 ft/s


231 x 5 = 1155ft

What is the value of the expression “two less than six times the difference of a number and five” when n = 9?
Finger [1]

Answer:

Try solving 6(n-5)-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe this can be set up as 6(n-5)-2. The difference of a number and five can be represented by n-5. If this needs to be multiplied by 6 (hence 6 times), it would become 6(n-5). Two less than that is represented by -2. Thus, two less than six times the difference of a number and five is 6(n-5) -2, which, when n=9 is plugged in, looks like 6(9-5) -2. Follow PEMDAS from there.

The parent function has been shifted right 3 units and down 1 unit. That is f(x)=|x| has been moved to ...

y = f(x -3) -1

y = |x -3| -1 . . . . matches the last choice
