A skydiver is falling at approximately 28 feet per second. Find the skydiver's change in altitude

Free_Kalibri [48]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

-140 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between speed, distance, and time can be written ...

distance = speed × time

distance = (28 ft/s)(5 s) = 140 ft

In 28 seconds, the skydiver changed position by 140 feet. Since the direction is presumed to be down (falling), the change in altitude is -140 feet.

Following are heights, in inches, for a sample of college basketball players. 78 83 82 78 78 80 81 79 79 83 77 78 84 82 80 80 82

The mean height of the basketball players is 80.3 inches

For given question,

we have been given the list of heights, in inches, for a sample of college basketball players.

We need to find the mean height of the basketball players.

We know that, for given sample of data

mean = sum of all observations ÷ total number of observation

First we find the sum of given heights.

78 + 83 + 82 + 78 + 78 + 80+ 81 +79+ 79 +83+ 77 +78+ 84+ 82+ 80+ 80 +82+ 84+78+ 80 = 1606

Total number of observations = 20

Using the formula of mean,

⇒ mean height = 1606/20

⇒ mean height = 80.3 inches

Therefore, the mean height of the basketball players is 80.3 inches

Length of a rectangular prism is increased by factor of 1.5. The width is doubled and height is tripled. What is the new volume?

dimulka [17.4K]

Nine times the original volume

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length, width and height of the rectangular prism be 'l' 'w' and 'h'.

The volume of the rectangular prism is given by,

V = W x l x h

The original volume of the rectangular prism is,

V = wlh

Here the length is 1.5 the original length

So, l = 1.5 x l = (1.5l)

And the with is doubled. So,

W = 2W

The height is tripled. So,

h = 3h

Volume of the new rectangular prism is,

V = (1.5l) (2w) (3h)

V = 9 wlh

We know that wlh is the original volume of the rectangular prism.

So the new volume is 9 times the original volume.
