Answer:

20 miles (Answer B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The northbound biker travels (4 mph)(4 hr) = 16 mi, and

the eastbound biker travels (3 mph)(4 hr) = 12 mi.

They travel at right angles to one another.  Thus, the Pythagorean Theorem applies here.  The distance between the two bikers is d = √( [12 mi]^2 + [16 mi]^2 ), or √(144 + 256) mi, or √400 mi, which works out to 20 miles.

Answer B is correct.

Average rate of change from t = 3 seconds to t = 5 seconds = \frac{f(5)-f(3)}{5-3} =  \frac{(-16( 5^{2})+48(5)+100)-(-16( 3^{2})+48(3)+100  }{2}=\frac{(-16(25)+240+100)-(-16(9)+144+100)}{2} = \frac{(-400+240+100)-(-144+144+100)}{2}= \frac{-60-100}{2} = \frac{-160}{2} = -80

Allisa [31]

Given:

One time payment, <em>p </em>= $300

Payment per month, <em>q = </em>$65

Number of months paid, <em>n</em> = 5

The objectiv is to find the amount she paid in 5 months.

Let <em>x </em>be the amount she paid in 5 months. Then the the formula is,

x=p+nq

Let's substitute the values.

\begin{gathered} x=300+5(65) \\ x=300+325 \\ x=625 \end{gathered}

Hence, total amount paid in 5 months is $625.
