Answer:

63.5 feet/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

She first descended 1,024 feet in 17 minutes

Then she descended 500 feet in 7 minutes

The total feet descended is 1,024 + 500 = 1,524 feet

The total time to descend is 17 + 7 = 24 minutes

The average rate of change in altitude is  

Altitude descended / time

1,524 feet / 24 minutes

63.5 feet /minute

I want to run 4 1/2 miles tonight. If I know running around my block is 3/5 of a mile, how many times should I run around the bl
sukhopar [10]
3/5 block mile is also 0.6 block mile
4 1/2 miles is also 4.5 miles

How many 0.6mi blocks do you run to run 4.5 miles?

4.5miles/0.6block mi = 7.5 or 7 1/2 blocks will equal 4.5 or 4 1/2 miles.

Check 7.5 blocks x 0.6 block mi = 4.5 miles

Same as you know one quarter equals $0.25 cent. And how many do you need to make one dollar that equals $1.00 ?

1/ .25 = 4 quarters

What is the factorization of this polynomial? 9x^2-0x-4
Harman [31]
9x²-0x-4
=9x²-4
=(3x-2)(3x+2) is the factor form of 9x²-0x-4
Solve for x:
3x-2=0
Add 2 to each side
3x-2+2=0+2
3x=2
Divided 3 to each side
3x/3=2/3
x=2/3
Or
3x+2=0
Subtract 2 to each side
3x+2-2=0-2
3x=-2
Divided 3 to each side
3x/3=-2/3
x=-2/3. Hope it help!

Find the value of x. (Type an integer or decimal.)
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle formed by 2 tangent lines is equal to one half the measure of the major arc minus the measure of the minor arc.

we are given the minor arc ( 110 ) however we are not given the major arc.

Because circles make a 360 degree rotation we can find the major arc by subtracting the measure of the minor arc from 360

Thus, major arc = 360 - 110 = 250

Now that we have identified the major and minor arc we can find x

Recall that x = 1/2 ( major arc - minor arc )

Thus, x = 1/2 ( 250 - 110 )

250 - 110 = 140

140 / 2 = 70

Hence, x = 70
