Answer: The (magnitude of the) rate of change increases over time. The object drops 16 feet in the first second, but 80 feet in the last second.
Explanation:
1) I will start by showing the table in an easy way to read and understand:
Time (seconds) Height (feet)
0 144
1 128
2 80
3 0
2) Rate of change
- An initial clarification: the rate of change decreases since it is becoming more negative every second, but, in the analysis, the reasonable is to deal with the magnitude of this rate. The results shown below that the rate as a negative value, but the comparison is set about the magnitude of the change.
- The rate of change is calculated for every pair of consecutive points using this equation:
rate of change = [change in height] / [time elapsed]
a) rate₁: [128 - 144] feet / [ 1 - 0] sec = - 16 feet / sec ⇒ the object drops 16 feet in the first second.
b) rate₂ = [80 - 128] feet / [2 - 1] sec = - 48 feet/sec ⇒ the object drops 48 feet in the next second
c) rate₃ = [0 - 80] feet / [3 - 2] sec = - 80 feet/sec ⇒ the object drops 80 feet in the last second.
The rate of change is more negative every second: it increases in magnitude over time. The object drops 16 feet in the first second, but 80 feet in the last second.
Answer:
A. -3x^2+7x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x^2+3x-3)-(6x^2-4x-2)
3x^2+3x-3-6x^2+4x+2
-3x^2+7x-1
(x^1/8 y^1/4 z^1/2)^8
(8 √x 4 √y √z^8)
(8 √x 8 √y^2 8 √z^4)^8
8 √xy^2z^4^8
Solution: xy^2 z^4
Answer: It may or may not be B.
The probability is a ratio of the possible events to the total events. The total is 52 cards, so the denominator is 52. The individual properties of the specific cards are the following:
Any face or number cards is 4/52, because there are 4 cards for each symbol. On the other hand, each symbol like heart, diamond, club or spade would each have a probability of 13/52 (counting numbers 2 to 10, Ace card, and the 3 face cards). Also, there are 26 each of red and black cards. Furthermore, the words 'or' and 'and' are hint words. When you see 'or', you have to add their individual probabilities. If you see the word 'and', you'll have to multiply them. With that said, the solution is as follows:
a.) P = 4/52 + 4/52 + 4/52 = 3/13
b.) P = (13/52 + 13/52 + 4/52)(26/52) = 15/52
c.) P = 13/52
d.) P = 13/52 + 13/52 + 13/52 = 3/4
