Answer:

60ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate

rate = f(3) - f(0)

         -------------

         3-0

rate = 200-380

         ---------------

         3-0

rate = -180/3   = -60 ft/s

The negative tells us it is falling

The fall falls 60ft/s

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer is 60 feet / second.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the height of a ball which is falling from a height of 280 feet for 3 seconds.

We are to find the ball's rate of fall during the first 3 seconds.

For that, we will take the difference between the heights and divide it by the time.

Ball's rate = \frac { 3 8 0 - 2 0 0 } { 3 } = 60 feet / second

John wants to build a corral next to his barn. He has 300 feet of fencing to enclose three sides of his rectangular yard.
Mandarinka [93]
Let's first define the variables:
 x = width
 300 - 2x = long
 The area will be:
 A = (x) * (300 - 2x)
 A = 300x - 2x²
 We look for the maximum area, for this, we derive:
 A '= 300 - 4x
 We match zero:
 0 = 300 - 4x
 x = 300/4 = 75
 Therefore, the width is:
 x = 75 feet
 The length is:
 300 - 2x = 300 - 2 (75) = 300-150
 150 feet
 Answer:
 Part A:
 
The maximum area will be:
 
A = (150) * (75) = 11250 square feet
 
Part B:
 
The dimensions are:
 
Length = 150 feet
 width = 75 feet

A triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 2. If cos a° = three fifths and segment FD measures 6 units, how long is segment DE?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cos a = 3 /5

From trigonometry ;

Cos θ = Adjacent / hypotenus

Side Adjacent angle a = 3 = FD

Hypotenus = 5 = DE

3 / 5 = FD / DE

FD = 6 units

3/5 = 6/DE

DE * 3/5 = 6

DE = 6 ÷ 3/5

DE = 6 * 5 /3

DE = 30 /3

DE = 10 units
