What was Mike's average rate of descent over his last three hours?

Mathematics

Romashka [77]2 years ago

Answer:

<em>The average rate of descent over the last 3 hours is 1000 ft/h. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rate of Change</u>

It's usually referred to as to the variation that one magnitude has in reference to another. The reference magnitude can be time t. The rate of change is calculated as the slope of the curve that represents the function.

The image shows the variation of Mike's height above sea level in feet with time in hours. We need to calculate the rate of change in the last three hours (from 7 to 10).

The rate of change can be calculated with the slope of the line, which formula is:

\displaystyle m=\frac{h_2-h_1}{t_2-t_1}

Let's pick two points (7,4000) (10,1000):

\displaystyle m=\frac{1000-4000}{10-7}=\frac{-3000}{3}=-1000

m=-1000\ ft/h

Note the rate of change is negative, which means the height is decreasing.

The average rate of descent over the last 3 hours is 1000 ft/h.

42 is 30% of what number??? Add work plz
romanna [79]
X - the number

30\% x =42 \\&#10;\frac{30}{100}x=42 \\&#10;\frac{3}{10}x=42 \\&#10;x=42 \times \frac{10}{3} \\&#10;x=\frac{420}{3} \\&#10;x=140

42 is 30% of 140.

I need answers!!!!!!!!

Answer:

a) 4.4583 b) Fiona

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the average of the numbers by adding them all together then dividing them by the amount of numbers given:

(85 + 88 + 90 + 91 + 93 + 96 + 97 + 97 + 98 + 98 + 99 + 105)\div12= 1137\div12= 94.75

Then find the difference between each number and the answer you got

(85 - 94.75) + (88 - 94.75) + (90 - 94.75) + (91 - 94.75) + (93 - 94.75) + (96 - 94.75) + (97 - 94.75) + (97 - 94.75) + (98 - 94.75) + (98 - 94.75) + (99 - 94.75) + (105 - 94.75)\div12

Which is

(9.75) + (6.75) + (4.75) + (3.75) + (1.75) + (1.25) + (2.25) + (2.25) + (3.25) + (3.25) + (4.25) + (10.25)\div12

Which comes out to

\frac{53.5}{12}=4.4583

How many terms are in the binomial expansion of (2x 3)5? 4 5 6 7
padilas [110]

In the binomial expansion (2x + 3)^5 , there are 6 terms.

According to the question, given that

Binomial expansion  (2x + 3)^5

Number of terms in a binomial expansion of (x + y)^n is

N = n + 1 words in total

In the binomial expansion (2x + 3)^5

n = 5

N = 5 + 1 = 6

Therefore, In Binomial expansion  (2x + 3)^5 there are 6 terms.

The algebraic expression (x + y)n can be expanded according to the binomial theorem, which represents it as a sum of terms using separate exponents of the variables x and y. Each word in a binomial expansion has a coefficient, which is a numerical value.

The formula for expanding the exponential power of a binomial expression is provided by the binomial theorem, sometimes referred to as the binomial expansion. The following is the binomial expansion of (x + y)n using the binomial theorem:

(x+y)^n = n_C_{0} * n_y_{0} + n_C_{1}  * n-1_y_{1} + n_C_{2} * n-2_ y_{2} + ... + n_C_{n-1} * 1_y_{n-1} + n_C_{n} * 0_y_{n}
