Answer:

5.25 or 5 1/4 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let us recall that,</em>

<em>The Average speed = The total time/total distance covered</em>

<em> Team infinite dimensions is canoed 15 3/4 Miles</em>

<em>The Hours from the example =3</em>

<em>which is 63/12 = 5.25 </em>

<em> or in another way, we can also arrive at the same solution which is,</em>

<em>15.75 miles/3 hours=5.25 or 5 1/4 mph.</em>

<em>the average speed in miles per hour is, 5.25 miles/hour</em>

Average speed = total distance/total time

15 3/4 / 3 = 63/4 / 3 = 63/12 = 5.25

so, their average speed was 5.25 miles/hour

Consider the following function. f(x) = 16 − x2/3 Find f(−64) and f(64). f(−64) = f(64) = Find all values c in (−64, 64) such th

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

This does not contradict Rolle's Theorem, since f '(0) = 0, and 0 is in the interval (−64, 64).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

$f(x)=16-\frac{x^2}{3}$

To find $f(-64)$ , we substitute $x=-64$ into the function.

$f(-64)=16-\frac{(-64)^2}{3}$

$f(-64)=16-\frac{4096}{3}$

$f(-64)=-\frac{4048}{3}$

To find $f(64)$ , we substitute $x=64$ into the function.

$f(64)=16-\frac{(64)^2}{3}$

$f(64)=16-\frac{4096}{3}$

$f(64)=-\frac{4048}{3}$

To find $f'(c)$ , we must first find $f'(x)$ .

$f'(x)=-\frac{2x}{3}$

This implies that;

$f'(c)=-\frac{2c}{3}$

$f'(c)=0$

$\Rightarrow -\frac{2c}{3}=0$

$\Rightarrow -\frac{2c}{3}\times -\frac{3}{2}=0\times -\frac{3}{2}$

$c=0$

For this function to satisfy the Rolle's Theorem;

It must be continuous on $[-64,64]$ .

It must be differentiable on $(-64,64)$ .

and

$f(-64)=f(64)$ .

All the hypotheses are met, hence this does not contradict Rolle's Theorem, since f '(0) = 0, and 0 is in the interval (−64, 64) is the correct choice.

what is the distance between the points (4, 5) and (10, 13) on a coordinte plane a. 12 units b. 8 units c. 10 units d. 14 units

qaws [65]

Answer:

<h2>10 units</h2>

Option C is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the points be A and B

A ( 4 , 5 ) ------> ( x1 , y1 )

B ( 10 , 13 ) ------> ( x2 , y2 )

Now, let's find the distance between these points:

$\sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} }$

plug the values

$= \: \sqrt{(10 - 4) ^{2} + {(13 - 5)}^{2} }$

Calculate the difference

$= \sqrt{ {(6)}^{2} + {(8)}^{2} }$

Evaluate the power

$= \sqrt{36 + 64}$

Add the numbers

$= \sqrt{100}$

Write the number in exponential form with. base of 10

$= \sqrt{ {(10)}^{2} }$

Reduce the index of the radical and exponent with 2

$= 10 \: units$

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!

Answer:

Sum of interior angles of 12 sided object = 1800°

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to calculate the sum of interior angles of a polygon is,

Sum of the interior angles of a polygon = (n - 2) × 180°

Where n = number of sides of the polygon.

If number of sides of a polygon are 12,

For n = 12,

Sum of interior angles = (12 - 2) × 180°

= 10 × 180°

= 1800°

Therefore, sum of interior angles of a 12 sided polygon will be 1800°.

An orange juice company sells a can of frozen orange juice that measures 9.4 centimeters in height and 5.2 centimeters in diamet

drek231 [11]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The third option:

2.7 times as much.

To calculate how many more juice will the new can hold, we need to calculate the old can volume to the new can volume.

So, calculating we have:

Old can:

Since the cans have a right cylinder shape, we can calculate their volume using the following formula:

$Volume_{RightCylinder}=Volume_{Can}=\pi r^{2} h$

Where,

$r=radius=\frac{diameter}{2}\\h=height$

We are given the old can dimensions:

$radius=\frac{5.2cm}{2}=2.6cm\\\\height=9.4cm$

So, calculating the volume, we have:

$Volume_{Can}=\pi *2.6cm^{2} *9.4cm=199.7cm^{3}$

We have that the volume of the old can is:

$Volume_{Can}=199.7cm^{2}$

New can:

We are given the new can dimensions, the diameter is increased but the height is the same, so:

$radius=\frac{8.5cm}{2}=4.25cm\\\\height=9.4cm$

Calculating we have:

$Volume_{Can}=\pi *4.25cm^{2} *9.4cm=533.40cm^{3}$

Now, dividing the volume of the new can by the old can volume to know how many times more juice will the new can hold, we have:

$\frac{533.4cm^{3} }{199.7cm^{3}}=2.67=2.7$

Hence, we have that the new can hold 2.7 more juice than the old can, so, the answer is the third option:

2.7 times as much.

Have a nice day!
