Team tool Bella gathered 15 pounds of wood in 1/3 of an hour.

1/3 of an hour is equal to 1/3 of 60 mins = 1/3 * 60 mins = 20 mins

We have to find their speed in pounds per hour( 60 mins).

Pounds of woods gathered in 1 hour or 60 mins = 15/20*60

= 15 * 3

= 45 pounds

Therefore, their speed in pounds per hour is 45 pounds / hour

Hope this helps ..!!

Thank you :)

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = \sqrt{x} = x^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$f(x+h) = \sqrt{x+h} = (x+h)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

We use binomial expansion for $(x+h)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

This can be rewritten as

$[x(1+\dfrac{h}{x})]^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

From the expansion

$(1+x)^n=1+nx+\dfrac{n(n-1)}{2!}+\ldots$

Setting $x=\dfrac{h}{x}$ and $n=\frac{1}{2}$ ,

$(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+(\dfrac{h}{x})(\dfrac{1}{2})+\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}(1-\frac{1}{2})}{2!}(\dfrac{h}{x})^2+\tldots$

$=1+\dfrac{h}{2x}-\dfrac{h^2}{8x^2}+\ldots$

Multiplying by $x^{\frac{1}{2}}$ ,

$x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}=x^{\frac{1}{2}}+\dfrac{h}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}-\dfrac{h^2}{8x^{\frac{3}{2}}}+\ldots$

$x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}-x^{\frac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{h}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}-\dfrac{h^2}{8x^{\frac{3}{2}}}+\ldots$

$\dfrac{x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}-x^{\frac{1}{2}}}{h}=\dfrac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}-\dfrac{h}{8x^{\frac{3}{2}}}+\ldots$

The limit of this as $h\to 0$ is

$\lim_{h\to0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$ (since all the other terms involve $h$ and vanish to 0.)

Yesterday, between noon and midnight, the temperature decreased by 26.7°F. If the temperature was -14.4°F at midnight, what was

Papessa [141]

Answer:

41.1

Step-by-step explanation:

It was decreased by 26.7 between noon and midnight.

If it was -14.4 at midnight, which i after noon, you minus 26.7 and -14.4.

26.7--14.4 is 41.1.

Find the inverse matrix or type "none". (use decimals) {11 -5 3 -1}

alexira [117]

The inverse of the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}11&-5\\3&-1\end{array}\right]$ is the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{-1}{4} &\frac{5}{4} \\\\\frac{-3}{4} &\frac{11}{4} \end{array}\right]$ .

The inverse of a matrix A is calculated by the formula:

A' = (1/|A|)(Adj A),

where A' represents the inverse of matrix A,

|A| represents the determinant value of matrix A, and

Adj A represents the Adjoin matrix of matrix A.

So, to calculate the inverse of the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}11&-5\\3&-1\end{array}\right]$ , we will first calculate its Adj.

Adj = $\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1&-3\\5&11\end{array}\right] ^{T}$ = $\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1&5\\-3&11\end{array}\right]$ .

Now, we calculate |A| = 11*(-1) - (-5)*3 = -11 + 15 = 4.

Therefore A' = (1/|A|)(Adj A),

or, A' = $(1/4)*\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1&5\\-3&11\end{array}\right]$ ,

or, A' = $\left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{-1}{4} &\frac{5}{4} \\\\\frac{-3}{4} &\frac{11}{4} \end{array}\right]$ .

Therefore, the inverse of the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}11&-5\\3&-1\end{array}\right]$ is the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{-1}{4} &\frac{5}{4} \\\\\frac{-3}{4} &\frac{11}{4} \end{array}\right]$ .
