Answer:

The total distance that the turtle traveled during the 5 seconds recorded is Distance \:traveled\approx 3.838\:\frac{m}{s}

Step-by-step explanation:

To estimate distance traveled of an object moving in a straight line over a period of time, from discrete data on the velocity of the object, we use a Riemann Sum. If we have a table of values

\left\begin{array}{ccccccc}time\:=\:t_i&t_0=0&t_1&t_2&...&t_n\\velocity\:=\:v(t_i)&v(t_0)&v(t_1)&v(t_2)&...&v(t_n)\end{array}\right

where \Delta t=t_i-t_{i-1}, then we can approximate the displacement on the interval [t_{i-1},t_i] by v(t_{i}) \times\Delta t.

Therefore the distance traveled of the object over the time interval [0,t_n] can be approximated by

Distance \:traveled\approx |v(t_1)|\Delta t+|v(t_2)|\Delta t+...+|v(t_n)|\Delta t

This is the right endpoint approximation.

We are given a table of values for <em>v(t)</em>

\left\begin{array}{cccccccc}t(sec)&0&1&2&3&4&5\\v(t)&0.078&0.83&0.75&0.98&0.853&0.425\end{array}\right

Applying the right endpoint approximation formula we get,

\Delta t = 1\sec

Distance \:traveled\approx |v(t_1)|\Delta t+|v(t_2)|\Delta t+|v(t_3)|\Delta t+|v(t_4)|\Delta t+|v(t_5)|\Delta t\\\\Distance \:traveled\approx 0.83(1)+0.75(1)+0.98(1)+0.853(1)+0.425(1)\\\\Distance \:traveled\approx 3.838\:\frac{m}{s}

The total distance that the turtle traveled during the 5 seconds recorded is Distance \:traveled\approx 3.838\:\frac{m}{s}

FUNDRAISING A school is raising money by selling calendars for $20 each. Mrs. Hawkins promised a party to whichever of her Engli
____ [38]

Rj, this is the solution to question 19:

• 1st period class sold 60 calendars in total

,

• 2nd period class sold 123 calendars in total

We calculate the average per week, this way:

• 1st period class sold 60/4 = 15 calendars per week

,

• 2nd period class sold 123/4 = 30.75 calendars per week

In consequence the multiplication equation that represents this situation is:

15w + 30.75w = 183, where w is the number of weeks Mrs. Hawkins' classes sold calendars.

This is the solution to question 20:

We already know the average number of calendars that 1st and 2nd period classes sold per week. Now, let's calculate the average for 3nd 4th peiod classes, this way:

• 3rd period class sold 89 calendars in total

,

• 4th period class sold 126 calendars in total

Therefore, the average is:

• 3rd period class sold 89/4 = 22.25 calendars per week

,

• 4th period class sold 126/4 = 31.5 calendars per week

Summarizing, we have:

15 + 30.75 + 22.25 + 31.5 = 99.5 calendars was the average number sold by all her classes in a week.
