Answer:

t = 2 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

h = – 2t²– 6t + 20

When the rocket hits the ground. h = 0 ft.

– 2t²– 6t + 20 = 0 /: (-2)

t² + 3t - 10 = 0

(t + 5)(t - 2)=0

t = - 5, t = 2

Time can be only positive.

What is the average rate of change for the function f(x)=3x^2 -5 on the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ −1 ?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = -1 and a = -3

The average rate of change = $\frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

f(b) = f(-1) = 3(-1)^2 - 5 = 3 - 5 = -2

f(a) = f(-3) = 3(-3)^2 - 5 =27 - 5 = 22

f(b) - f(a) = -2 - 22 = -24

b - a = -1 + 3 = 2

$\frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$ = -24/2 = -12
