Answer: First portion is greater than second portion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken to hiked down a trail = 10 minutes

Change in elevation = (-) 170 feet

Speed is given by

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\\\Speed=\frac{170}{10}\\\\Speed=17\text{ feet per minute}

Similarly,

Time taken to hiked down a trail = 20 minutes

Change in elevation = (-)220 feet

Speed is given by

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Speed=\frac{220}{20}\\\\Speed=11\text{ feet per minutes}

So, we can see that first portion of the hike where he hiked down a trail at a steady rate for 10 minutes and her change in elevation was (-) 170 feet, was her rate of change in elevation greater.

<u>As 17 feet per minutes is greater than 11 feet per minutes.</u>

Which of the following numbers is not a perfect square?<br><br> 24<br> 25<br> 64<br> 100
stich3 [128]
Hi! 

A perfect square is the product of when a whole number is multiplied by itself

Ex:

6 × 6 = 36, 36 is the perfect square. 

The number that is being multiplied is the square root. 

So to find the correct answer for this question, let's use the process of elimination. 

100 = 10 × 10 so we can cross out 100

64 = 8 × 8 so we can cross out 64

25 = 5 × 5 so we can cross out 25

Now all we have left is 24, which is not a perfect square. 

Answer: A. 24

Hope this helps :)
