The average rate of change of a function f(x) over an interval (a, b) is given by
Therefore, given a function, f(x), over an interval (2, 9), the average rate of change of the function can be found using the expression
The actual amount that needs to be divided = 85
The ratio in which the amount needs to be divided = 2:3:5
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
2x + 3x + 5x = 85
10x = 85
x = 85/10
= 8.5
Then
The ratio in which the number 85 will be divided = 2 * 8.5:3 * 8.5:5 * 8.5
= 17:25.5:42.5
So from the above deduction we can see that the number 85 can be divided in the ratio 17:25.5:42.5
Answer:
T-.5 = x (200)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let T = total time in hours
30 mn = .5 hours 30
/60
=
.5
$ 2.00 is the rate per hour.
so T
−
.5
= the time that will be charged at the rate
Therefore the total charge is then
T

100% = 24000
50 % = 12000
10% = 2400
5 % = 1200
1 % = 240
To solve problems like this, we must simply break it down and read each part carefully. We can also set it up as a math problem to make it easier to visualize.
The elevator starts on the twentieth floor, so we will represent that with 20.
20
It goes down 11 floors, so we can represent that with a -11.
20-11=9
Now we are on floor 9. Then, we go up 5 floors, so we can represent that with a 5.
9+5=14
Using the math above, we can see the elevator is on the 14th floor.
