What is the rocket's average rate of change from 3≤t≤6 in yards/second?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change is the same thing as the slope.  Because this is parabolic, we cannot find the exact rate of change as we could if this were a linear function.  But we can use the same idea.  When t = 3, h(t) = 33, so the coordinate point is (3, 33).  When t = 6, h(t) = 0, so the coordinate is (6, 0).  Plug those values into the slope formula:

m=\frac{0-33}{6-3} and

m=\frac{-33}{3} which is -11

From 3 to 6 seconds, the rocket is falling 11 yards per second.

What is the average rate of change of f(x), represented by the graph, over the interval [-2, 2]?
Molodets [167]
To get the average rate of change (ARC) of f(x) over [x1, x2], we use the formula:
ARC = ( f(x2) - f(x2) ) / (x2 - x1)

From the graph
f(2) = 4
f(-2) = 4

Plugging in the values into the formula:
ARC = (4 - 4) / (2 - (-2) )
ARC = 0

The points connecting (-2,4) amd (2,4) is a horizontal line that is the rate of change is 0.

I believe it is A and Yes

The bigger the price is on an item, the more tax you would have to pay, so both numbers increase. As for whether or not there is a line through the dots, you use a line when you could go inbetween the points. For example, with this question you can have 0.24, 0.86, or any other number as the price and it would make sense. If the question was sales tax on a certain number of shirts, well, you can't buy half a shirt so you don't need anywhere inbetween the dots.

Proportional in these kinds of problems means whether or not the line curves. If it doesn't and is a straight line, then it is proportional.

Find the area of the shaded region of the circle. Round to the nearest hundredth.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:Area of shaded region is 454.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the area of a circle is expressed as

Area of circle = πr^2

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

r = 14

Area of the circle = 3.14 × 14^2 = 615.44

The shaded area is a sector

Area of a sector is expressed as

Area = #/360 × πr^2

Where

# = 94 = central angle

Area of sector = 94/360 × 3.14 × 14

= 160.68

Area of shaded region would be

615.44 - 160.68

= 454.97
