The answer in simplest form would be 1/6
There are 16 ounces in a pound, so 28 pounds is 448 ounces. Divide 448 by 8 which equals 56 ounces of dog food.
We know that:
time=distance/speed
if the tortoise speed is x m/min, then since 0.5 m/hr=1/120 m/min
18/x=23+18/(x+1/120)
solving for x we get:
x=0.08 m/min
speed of hare is:
(0.08+1/120)=0.088 m/min
The average rates of change of f(x) and their corresponding intervals are given as:
Interval Rate of Change
[-5, -1] -8
[-4, -1] -7
[-3, 1] -4
[-2, 1] -3.
<h3>What is the explanation for the above?
</h3>
Step 1 - See Table Attached
Step 2 - State the formula for rate of change
The formula for rate of change is given as:
= [change in f(x)] / [change in x]
a) For interval [5, -1] ⇒
Rate of Change - [ f(1) - f(-5) ] / [-1 - (-5)]
= [-1 - 35] / [-1+5]
= -36 / 4
= - 8
b) For interval [-4, -1] ⇒
rate of change = [ f(-1) - f(-4) ] / [ -1 - (-4) ]
= [3 - 24] / [-1 + 4]
= -21/3
= - 7
c) interval [-3,1] ⇒
rate of change = [ f(1) - f(-3) ] / [ 1 - (-3) ]
= [-1 - 15] / [1 + 3]
= -16/4
= - 4
d) interval [-2,1] ⇒
rate of change = [f (1) - f(-2)] / [1 - (-2)]
= [ -1 - 8] / [1 + 2]
= -9/3
= -3
