Answer:

The range of weights in the scale allowed to report in order to be compliant with local inspection agency regulations is between 14.925 pounds and 15.075 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weights should be within 0.5% of the actual weight measured.

15.0 pounds

0.005*15 = 0.075

Tolerance of 0.075 pounds

15 - 0.075 = 14.925 pounds

15 + 0.075 = 15.075 pounds

The range of weights in the scale allowed to report in order to be compliant with local inspection agency regulations is between 14.925 pounds and 15.075 pounds.

Answer:

1) 102.7 meters

2) 11

Step-by-step explanation:

1) -4.9x² + 75x = -4.9x² + 50x + 38

25x = 38

x = 1.52 s

Height = -4.9(1.52)² + 75(1.52) = 102.67904 m = 102.7 m

2) f(x) = x² + 3x - 2

f(2) = 2² + 3(2) - 2 = 8

f(6) = 6² + 3(6) - 2 = 52

Average rate of change:

(52-8)/(6-2) = 11
