Any times you see the phrase: "Rate of Change", or even sometimes just the word "Rate" think slope.
The word slope is just a fancy word that means the rate of change.
Rate of Change is just a fancy phrase meaning how much does something change over some amount of time.
So in this case our rate of change will have the units of inches per year.
Let's get to the problem at hand!
We'll need to find slope / the rate of change (the two are interchangeable with each other).
Let's go over the formula for slope:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
First we will need to label each of the "coordinated points (the two numbers that go together in a pair)" with either (x1,y1) or (x2,y2).
A Giant Red Oak's diameter in 1965 was 248 inches. Keep in mind time is ALWAYS going to be X in rate of change problems (and most all problems for that matter).
(1965,248)
(X1,Y2)
(2005,251)
(X2,Y2)
Plug in the values into the equation!
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (251 - 248) / (2005 - 1965)
m = (3) / (40)
Type that into a calculator to get a decimal value over 1.
m = 0.075 inches per 1 year.
Or...
m = 0.075in / 1 year
Answer:
It would be 60
Step-by-step explanation:
So 3(3*5 + 5) so 3*5 would be 15, 15+5=20, and 20*3=60
This is really simple if you can't figure this out, you might as well go back to 1st grade and below
pls try before asking
Devisor is the bottom number
hmm
11.75=11 and 3/4
so times it by 4 to clear denomenator
but do it by top and bottom
23.4/11.75 times 4/4=93.6/47
so times it by 4/4
Take the vector u = <ux, uy> = <4, 3>.
Find the magnitude of u:
||u|| = sqrt[ (ux)^2 + (uy)^2]
||u|| = sqrt[ 4^2 + 3^2 ]
||u|| = sqrt[ 16 + 9 ]
||u|| = sqrt[ 25 ]
||u|| = 5
To find the unit vector in the direction of u, and also with the same sign, just divide each coordinate of u by ||u||. So the vector you are looking for is
u/||u||
u * (1/||u||)
= <4, 3> * (1/5)
= <4/5, 3/5>
and there it is.
Writing it in component form:
= (4/5) * i + (3/5) * j
I hope this helps. =)
