Answer:

24 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

During a week the water level in a pond decreased by 4 in. Per day,

For two days, it decreased by half that amount = 4\times\frac{1}{2}=2\ inches\ per\ day

Question asked:

How much did the water level decrease in the pond in one week?

Solution:

As we know, there are 7 days in a week.

<u>For 5 days,</u>

Each day water level decreased by = 4 inches

In 5 days, water level decreased by = 4\times5=20\ inches

<u>For exceptional 2 days:</u>

Each day water level decreased by = 2 inches

In 2 days, water level decreased by = 2\times2=4\ inches

Water level decreased in whole week = 20 + 4 = 24 inches

Therefore, water level decreased 24 inches in the pond in one week.

If John pays $144 for 9 pounds of pears, how much is each pound
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

$16 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the price per pound.

Therefore, we must divide the cost by the pounds.

\frac{cost}{pounds}

We know it costs $144 for 9 pounds of pears. Therefore, $144 is the cost and there are 9 pounds.

\frac{\$144}{9 pounds}

Divide.

\$16 /pound

It costs $16 for each pound of pears.

Over what interval will the immediate value theorem apply
koban [17]

Answer:

Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.

Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or

an  [a,b] entirely to the right of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.

Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.

Strike441 [17]

The function based on the information will be S = -0.005D + 95.

<h3>How to illustrate the function?</h3>

It should be noted that d is the distance from the starting point while S is the speed.

The points given are (0 95)( 4000, 75).

Slope = (75 - 95)(4000 - 0)

= 0.005

The equation will be:

S = -0.005D + 95
