Answer:
25 (ft/s)
Step-by-step explanation:
The "rate of change" is taken to mean the "rise" divided by the "run". Here, adjacent points differ in their y-value by 25 ft and their x-value by 1 second.
The rate of change is ...
rise/run = (25 ft)/(1 second) = 25 ft/second
Usually, we're just interested in the numerical value: 25.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The graph is mis-labeled. It is not showing "rate of ascent." It is showing height as a function of time. The "rate of ascent" is the <em>slope</em> of the line on the graph, not its <em>value</em>.
Answer:
Linear. While all linear equations produce straight lines when graphed, not all linear equations produce linear functions. In order to be a linear function, a graph must be both linear (a straight line) and a function (matching each x-value to only one y-value).
Answer:
k = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the points are collinear then the slopes between consecutive points are equal.
Using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 1)
m = 
= 
= 
Repeat with another 2 points and equate to
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (k, 4)
m = 
, then
= ( cross- multiply )
k - 1 = 10 ( add 1 to both sides )
k = 11
Answer:
x=5 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-8x+21=6
x^2-8x+21+16=6+16
(x-4)^2=1
(x-4)=±1, x=5 and 3
Answer:
864 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete Question
A display case in the shape of a rectangular pyramid has a base that is 12 inches by 9 inches. It is 8 inches tall. What is the volume of the display case?
The volume of a rectangular pyramid =
Area of the base × Height of the pyramid
Base has dimensions = 12 inches by 9 inches.
Area of the base = 108 square inches
Height of the pyramid = 8 inches
Volume of rectangular pyramid =
Area of the base × Height of pyramid
= 108 square inches × 8 inches
= 864 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the display case is 864 cubic inches
