The rate of change is : 

(2010 - 1780)/5 = 230 / 5 = 46

Answer:

-46 meters per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a glacier advanced down a mountain from an elevation of 2010 m to 1780 m in 5 years.

\text{Rate of change}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\text{Rate of change}=\frac{1780-2010}{5-0}

\text{Rate of change}=\frac{-230}{5}

\text{Rate of change}=-46

Since the glacier is melting down, therefore, the glacier's rate of change would be -46 meters per year.

The reason fractions need a common denominator before adding or subtracting is so that the numbers of pieces you are adding/subtracting are all the same size. Note that the numerator of a fraction just tells you how many pieces you have of that size.

If the graph of the function g defined by g(x)=-2x^2+9. Is translated vertically downward by 8 units, it becomes the graph of a
tester [92]
G ( x ) = - 2 x² + 9
If this function is translated vertically downward by 8 units it becomes:
f ( x ) = g ( x ) - 8
f ( x ) = - 2 x² + 9 - 8
Answer:
f ( x ) = - 2 x² + 1

W varies jointly as x and p . If w=78 when x=2 and p=10, find x when w=858 and p=5.5
Lemur [1.5K]
W=kxp
where
k is the constant of proportionality given by:
k=w/xp
<span> If w=78 when x=2 and p=10 then
</span>k=78/(2*10)
k=3.9
thus the formula is:
w=3.9xp


b] <span>find x when w=858 and p=5.5
plugging the values in the formula we get:
858=3.9</span>×5.5×x
hence 
x=858/(3.9×5.5)
x=358/21.45
x=16.69
