Answer:

The rate of change is of 0.25 lbs / person

Step-by-step explanation:

According to my research the formula for the <u>Rate of Change</u> is the following

$\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

In this situation we can use y for lbs and x for people. Since all the information was given to us in the question we can just plug the values into the formula above and solve for the rate of change.

$\frac{17lbs-9lbs}{68-36} = \frac{8lbs}{32people} = 0.25lbs/person$

So we can see that the rate of change is of 0.25 lbs / person

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Suppose that vehicles taking a particular freeway exit can turn right (R), turn left (L), or go straight (S). Consider observing

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

a. A = {RRR,LLL,SSS}

b. B = {RLS, RSL, LSR, LRS, SRL, SLR}

c. C = {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}

d. D = {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR, SSR, SSL, SRS, SLS, LSS, RSS, LLS, LLR, LRL, LSL, SLL, RLL}

e. C U D= {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR, SSR, SSL, SRS, SLS, LSS, RSS, LLS, LLR, LRL, LSL, SLL, RLL}

C n D = {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}

Step-by-step explanation:

a..

All three vehicles go in the same direction

This means that all the three vehicles either go straight, or right or left at the same time.

So, A { {RRR, LLL, SSS}

b..

All three vehicles take different directions

Thus means that all the vehicle take different routes

If a vehicle takes the the straight direction, the other 2 vehicles take right and left directions respectively

So, B = {RLS, RSL, LSR, LRS, SRL, SLR}

c..

Exactly two of the three vehicles turn right

This means that two vehicles take right direction while the last vehicle either tske the straight route or left route.

C = {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}

d..

Exactly two vehicles go in the same direction.

The means that if two vehicles pass straight direction then the third vehicle takes either the right or left direction.

Also, if two vehicles pass right direction, the third vehicle either takes the left direction or straight direction

Lastly, if two vehicles pass left direction then the third vehicle either pass the straight direction or right direction.

D = {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR, SSR, SSL, SRS, SLS, LSS, RSS, LLS, LLR, LRL, LSL, SLL, RLL}

e. C U D = the union of items in C and D without repetition

So,

C U D= {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR, SSR, SSL, SRS, SLS, LSS, RSS, LLS, LLR, LRL, LSL, SLL, RLL}

C n D = Common items in C and D

C n D = {RRS, RRL, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}

List outcomes in D'.D' = List outcomes in C ∪ D.C ∪ D = List outcomes in C ∩ D.C ∩ D =

if a quadratic equation with real coefficients has a discriminant of -36 then what type of roots does it have

Aleks04 [339]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

If a quadratic equation with real coefficients has a discriminant of -36.

The general form of quadratic equation is :

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

The discriminant of this equation is : $D=b^2-4ac$

If D=0, it will have 1 real roots

If D>0, it will have 2 real roots

If D<0, it will have no real roots

We have,

D = -36 < 0, so, the quadratic equation will have no real roots.

Select the correct answer.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

D. $2,511

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we need to write down the facts we know.

There are about 52.177 weeks in a year

Cesar works 28 hours each week

Cesar makes $23 an hour

There are 12 months in a year

Cesar has $3,360 after his monthly expenses

To figure out how many hours are in a "work year," multiply the number of work hours in a week by the number of weeks in a year. In other words, multiply Cesar's 28 hour work week by about 52.177 weeks. That makes 1,456 hours in his work year. That means he makes $33,492 a year. If you multiply $2,511 by the months in a year (12), you get $30132. Finally, subtract his annual salary by $30132 to get $3,360, which is what was left of Cesar's earnings after paying all of his monthly expenses. This means that your answer is: D. $2,511.
