Answer:

(a) 3118=61*t

(b)  The amount of time the roller coaster is in motion is 51.11 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed ​​is a magnitude that expresses the relationship between the space traveled by an object, the time used for it and its direction. In other words, speed is associated with the change in position of a body over time and can be expressed as:

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

Then the distance traveled can be expressed as:

distance=speed*time

(a) If x represents the total time that the roller coaster is in motion for each ride, the average speed is 61 feet per second and the distance is 3118 feet then the expression to represent the situation is:

<u><em>3118=61*x</em></u>

(b)  To calculate the amount of time the roller coaster is moving, you simply need to solve the expression found in (a). Dividing 61 to both sides:

\frac{3118}{61} =\frac{61*x}{61}

51.11 seconds=x

<u><em> The amount of time the roller coaster is in motion is 51.11 seconds.</em></u>

Find the directional derivative of the function at the given point in the direction of the vector v. f(x, y, z) = xyz , (3, 3, 9
Anna [14]

The derivative of f(x,y,z) in the direction of a vector \mathbf u is

\nabla_{\mathbf u}f=\nabla f\cdot\dfrac{\mathbf u}{\|\mathbf u\|}

With f(x,y,z)=xyz, we get

\nabla f=(yz,xz,xy)

and \mathbf u=(-1,-2,2),

\|\mathbf u\|=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-2)^2+2^2}=3

Then

\nabla_{(-1,-2,2)}f(3,3,9)=(27,27,9)\cdot\dfrac{(-1,-2,2)}3=-21

A basketball team played 15 games and won 80% of them. If the team expects to play 30 games in all, how many more games must it
emmainna [20.7K]
So 80% of 15 games won equal 12 games won and 3 lost. This is because 15/10 = 1.5 and 1.5 x 8 =12.
For 30, you do the exact same thing but with 90% instead. 30/10 = 3. 3 x 9 = 27.
So they need to have won 27 games to get a 90% winning percentage out of 30 games.
But since the question asks how many MORE games they need to play, it'll be 27-12 = 15.
So they need to win 15 more games to get a 90% winning percentage
