Answer:

Runner 1 has the fastest pace

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (40-0)/(4-0) =40/4 = 10 minutes per mile

The second  is 8.5 minutes per mile

The third we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (90-72)/(10-8) =18/2 = 9 minutes per mile

Answer:

The 1st runner has the fastest pace

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first runner, m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (40 - 0) / (4 - 0)

= 40/4

= 10

The second runner's pace is 8.5

For the third runner, m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (90 - 72) / (10 - 8)

= 18/2

= 9

So the first runner has the fastest pace with 10 minutes per mile

Hope this helps, and please mark me brainliest if it does!

A skate ramp is 4.2 meters long. It rises up 1.7 meters. What’s is the angle of elevation to the nearest tenth of a degree?

Explanation:
We view the ramp as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 4.2 and the vertical side .7, which is opposite the angle

I'm going to finish the problem but I'll note if we were actually building the ramp we don't need to know the angle; this sine is sufficient.

which I think is a pretty steep ramp for a wheelchair.
There will be another inverse sine that is the supplementary angle, around

, but we can rule that out as a value for a ramp wedge angle.

Under which condition does a country with a small GDP have a large per capita income? if it has a large population if it has a s
ratelena [41]
Per capita means per head or per person.

now, if a country has a small GDP hmmm say for the sake of example, $1000, and it has 1000 residents, then the per capita is $1000/1000 or a buck each.

now, $1000 is a really tiny GDP, but, if the population is say hmm 20 folks only, then the per capita amount is $1000/20, or $50 per person, now, that's a large "per capita" figure, more so than $1 per person, even though the GDP never changed, it was all along $1000.

so, if the population is comparitively small, the per capita is large, I think a good example of that is Switzerland.

sidenote:

bear in mind that per capita figures are very misleading, since you could have a tiny portion of the population making huge amounts and others making little, like in the US, and the per capita is very inaccurate to reflect the economy wealth distribution.

What is the end behavior? 10 points!!
Colt1911 [192]

Given:

The given function is:

f_1(x)=-3\cdot 2^{x-5}-4

The graph of the function is given.

To find:

The end behavior of the given function.

Solution:

We have,

f_1(x)=-3\cdot 2^{x-5}-4

From the given graph it is clear that the function approaches to -4 at x approaches negative infinite and the function approaches to negative infinite at x approaches infinite.

f_1(x)\to -4 as x\to -\infty

f_1(x)\to -\infty as x\to \infty

Therefore, the end behaviors of the given function are:

f_1(x)\to -4 as x\to -\infty

f_1(x)\to -\infty as x\to \infty
