Answer:

unit rate is 30 feet per second

Step-by-step explanation:

A sprinter can run 240 feet in 8 seconds.

we need to find the sprinter's unit rate of feet per second.

to find feet per second , divide feet by the seconds

given : 240 feet in 8 seconds

$\frac{feet}{second} = \frac{240}{8} =30$

So unit rate is 30 feet per second

Answer:

Rate of increase in height = $\frac{dh}{dt}=0.3156ft/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that volume of a cone is given by

$V=\frac{1}{12}\pi d^{2}h$

It is Given that diameter equals height thus we have

$V=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^{2}h\\\\V=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^{3}$

Differentiating both sides with respect to time we get

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{12}\pi \frac{dh^{3}}{dt}\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{12}\pi(3h^{2}\frac{dh}{dt})$

Applying values and solving for $\frac{dh}{dt}$ we get

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{12\frac{dV}{dt}}{3\pi h^{2}}\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=0.3156ft/min$

Answer: y= 3 times 2 to the power x. Second answer

Step-by-step explanation:

if you plug in 0 for x, y= 3x 1= 3

if you plug in 1 for x y= 3 x 2 = 6

Look at the x values and y values

(0,3) and (1, 6) on the graph. It matches answer number 2. Remember, 2 raised to the power 0 = 1 and 3 times 1 = 3. And 2 raised to the power 1 =2 and 3 times 2 = 6.
