The 2017 population of California was 39536653 and of Arizona was 7016270. Compute and compare the rate of pedestrian fatalities

per 100,000 residents.

Answer:

The pedestrian fatality rate for California per 100,000 residents would be;

= (858/39,536,653) * 100,000

= 2.17 people per 100,000

In Arizona that figure is;

= (216/7,016,270) * 100,000

= 3.08 people per 100,000

<em>This shows that even though California has a higher number of pedestrian fatalities in absolute terms, when this figure is made relative to population, Arizona has more pedestrian fatalities. </em>

According to Public survey conducted by a local middle school, Pizza is kids favorite food from age 12 to 15. If 240 out of 500
quester [9]

Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple problem of finding percentage.

To find percentage of people preferring pizza, we need to divide "number of person who like pizza" by the "total number of person".

So, that's

240/500

And then we need to multiply by 100 and tag a "%" sign at the end. So let's do this:

\frac{240}{500}*100=48

So 48% of the people chose pizza.

The table shows the weight gain of a kitten over a
stepan [7]

Answer:

The rate of change of the weight of kitten A is greater than the rate of change of the weight of kitten B

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The rate of change of the linear relationship is the slope of the line which represent this relationship
  • The rule of the slope is m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} , where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are 2 points on the line

∵ The table shows the weight gain of kitten A

→ Choose two points from the table to find the slope

∵ Points (0, 3) and (1, 7) are two points in the table

∴ x1 = 0 and y1 = 3

∴ x2 = 1 and y2 = 7

→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope above

∵ m = \frac{7-3}{1-0} = \frac{4}{1} = 4

∵ The slope is the rate of change

∴ The rate of change of the weight of kitten A is 4 oz/week

∵ The graph shows the weight gain of kitten B

→ Choose two points on the line to find the slope

∵ Points (0, 4) and (2, 10) lies on the line

∴ x1 = 0 and y1 = 4

∴ x2 = 2 and y2 = 10

→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope above

∵ m = \frac{10-4}{2-0} = \frac{6}{2} = 3

∵ The slope is the rate of change

∴ The rate of change of the weight of kitten B is 3 oz/week

→ By comparing the two rates

∵ The rate of change of kitten A is 4 oz per week

∵ The rate of change of kitten B is 3 oz per week

∴ The rate of change of the weight of kitten A is greater than

   the rate of change of the weight of kitten B

The distance d (in miles) you travel in a car is given by the two equations shown, where t is the time (in hours) and g is the n
lana [24]

We have two equations  d=55t and d=20g

The left sides of this equations are the same than the right sides are equal too

a)    55t=20g

b)   g=(55/20)t

c)  t=6h => g=(55/20) *6 = 165/10=16.5 gallons

d= 55t= 55*6=330 miles or d=20g=20*16.5=330 miles

Good luck!!!

A point moves along the curve y = √ x in such a way that the y-component of the position of the point is increasing at a rate of
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The value of x component changes at a rate of \frac{dx}{dt}=4\sqrt{x} units per second

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that y=x^{\frac{1}{2}}

Differentiating on both sides with respect to time we get

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{d\sqrt{x}}{dt}\\\\\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}x^{\frac{-1}{2}}(\frac{dx}{dt})\\\\\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\frac{dx}{dt}

It is given that \frac{dy}{dt}=2units/sec

Solving for \frac{dx}{dt} we get

\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{dy}{dt}\times 2\sqrt{x}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=4\sqrt{x}
