At 2:00 PM a car's speedometer reads 30 mi/h. At 2:10 PM it reads 50 mi/h. Show that at some time between 2:00 and 2:10 the acce

leration is exactly 120 mi/h2. Let v(t) be the velocity of the car t hours after 2:00 PM. Then v(1/6) − v(0) 1/6 − 0 = . By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a number c such that 0 < c < with v'(c) = . Since v'(t) is the acceleration at time t, the acceleration c hours after 2:00 PM is exactly 120 mi/h2.

Answer: If we define 2:00pm as our 0 in time; then:

at t= 0. the velocity is 30 mi/h.

then at t = 10m (or 1/6 hours) the velocity is 50mi/h

Then, if we think in the "mean acceleration" as the slope between the two velocities, we can find the slope as:

a= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (50 mi/h - 30 mi/h)/(1/6h - 0h) = 20*6mi/(h*h) = 120mi/h^{2}

Now, this is the slope of the mean acceleration between t= 0h and t = 1/6h, then we can use the mean value theorem; who says that if F is a differentiable function on the interval (a,b), then exist at least one point c between a and b where F'(c) = (F(b) - F(a))/(b - a)

So if v is differentiable, then there is a time T between 0h and 1/6h where v(T) = 120mi/h^{2}

9 – 2k = 25 what is k
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

k = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 9 from both sides to get the constants on one side and the variables on the other

9 - 2k = 25

- 2k = 25 - 9

Simplify

- 2k = 16

Divide by -2 on both sides to isolate the variable, then simplify once more.

- 2k/ -2 = 16/ -2

k = 16/ -2

k = -8

7 tenths times 10 is another problem that i need help on
Elza [17]
Hi there!

7 tenths times 10 is pretty easy and can be done on a calculator.
7 tenths is 0.7 in standard form.

0.7 × 10 = 7

Because if you think about it...
Tenths is like being dropped down by ten... then you multiply by ten which brings it back up to whole number seven. It may not make sense but that's what it is.

Hope this helps!

The set of numbers 1, 7, 11 and 36 contains values for m. What value of m makes the equation below true?
Arada [10]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

If m was 1, then it would be

4 +8 = 36, which is not true.

If m was 7, then it would be

28 + 8 = 36, which is true.

If m was 11, then it would be

44 + 8 = 36, which is not true.

If m was 36, then it would be

144 + 8 = 36, which is not true.

Hope that helps!
