Answer:

75 feet per hour is the rate of change in altitude.

Step-by-step explanation:

A climber is on a hike. After 2 hours he is at an altitude of 400 feet.

After 6 hours, he is at an altitude of 400 feet.

We have to determine the average rate of change in altitude.

We know rate of change in altitude = \frac{\text{(Change in altitude)}}{\text{Change in time}}

= \frac{700-400}{6-2}

= \frac{300}{4}

= 75 feet per hour

Therefore, 75 feet per hour is the rate of change in altitude.

Average rate of change =
(change in height during some time) / (length of time for the change).

Change in height = (700 feet - 400 feet) = 300 feet

Time for the change = (6 hours - 2 hours) = 4 hours

Average rate of change = (300 feet) / (4 hours) = <u>75 feet per hour</u>

If you’re good at geometry could somebody help me please?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

1) The answer is in decimal since 82.8 is not a square number and does not have a proper square root. And the nearest square number to it is 81 whose root is 9 and the upcoming square number is 100 whose root is 10. So the root of 82.8 will be decimal and between 9 and 10.

2) a^2 + b^2 = c^2

14^2 + 10^2 = c^2

196 + 100 = c^2

296=c^2

root of 296 is 17.2

So, x=17.2

Here also the answer is in decimal since it is not a square number. The nearest square number to 296 is 289 whose square root is 17 and the next square number after 296 is 324 whose root is 18. So the square root of 296 will be in between 17 and 18.

Are 6/10 and 6/30 multiples of 3/10 ? explain
Alex Ar [27]
6/30 and 6/10 are not multiples of 3/10 because you cant take 3/10 and multiply both the numerator and the denominator by one number and get 6/30 or 6/10 but a multiple would be like 6/20, 18/40, 30/100 and so on.
