Answer:

The air balloon descends 26.5 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of Change

The rate of change is a measure that compares two quantities, usually to know how one variable changes in time.

The hot air balloon was 4,064 feet high and, 28 minutes later, it went to 3,322 feet. We can calculate the rate of descent R by dividing the change of elevation over time:

$\displaystyle R=\frac{3,322-4,064}{28}=\frac{-742}{28}=-26.5$

Thus the air balloon descends 26.5 feet per minute

Q7Which statement is incorrect for the graph of thefunction y = -5 cosGcos( 3 (x – 3)) +62The period is 4.The amplitude is 3.The

guajiro [1.7K]

The given function is,

$y=-5\cos (\frac{\pi}{2}(x-3))+6$

The graph can be drawn as,

The period will be distance between two consequetive maximas,

$\text{Period}=1-(-3)=4$

Thus, period is correct.

The amplitude can be determined as,

$\begin{gathered} Amplitude=\frac{\max -\min }{2} \\ =\frac{11-1}{2} \\ =5 \end{gathered}$

Thus, amplitue is incorrect.

The range is,

$y\in\lbrack1,11\rbrack$

Thus, the range is correct.

The midline is,

$\begin{gathered} \text{midline}=\frac{\max +\min }{2} \\ =\frac{1+11}{2} \\ =6 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the midline is correct.

Thus, option (b) is the solution.

This graph is that of a parabola, which in turn represents a quadratic (2nd order) equation, also a polynomial. The domain of any and all polynomial(s) is "the set of all real numbers," or (-infinity, infinity).
