Answer:

y = 240.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use trigonometric ratio to find y:

Thus,

Reference angle = 90° - 31° = 59°

Opposite = 400 ft

Adjacent = y

Therefore:

Tan 59° = 400/y

Multiply both sides by y

y*tan 59 = 400

Divide both sides by tan 59

y = 400/tan 59

y = 240.3 ft (to the nearest tenth)

Y= -1/4x + 4.25, perdendicular then it must be the opposite of 4x which is -1/4. Then you multiply it with 5 and then add or subtract a number so you can find 3. So -1/4× 5 + 4.25= 3. Here you gooo!

What is the average rate of change of f(x) = -x2 + 3x + 6 over the interval –3

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

$\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} =\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{6-(-12)}{3-(-3)} =\frac{18}{6}= 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average rate of change of a function over a given interval, basically you need to find the slope. The mathematical definition of the slope is very similar to the one we use every day. In mathematics, the slope is the relationship between the vertical and horizontal changes between two points on a surface or a line. In this sense, the slope can be found using the following expression:

$Average\hspace{3}rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change=Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}$

So, the average rate of change of:

$f(x)=-x^2+3x+6$

Over the interval $-3$

Is:

$f(x_2)=f(3)=-(3)^2+3(3)+6=-9+9+6=6\\\\f(x_1)=f(-3)=-(-3)^2+3(-3)+6=-9-9+6=-12$

$\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} =\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{6-(-12)}{3-(-3)} =\frac{18}{6}= 3$

Therefore, the average rate of change of this function over that interval is 3.
