Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Set up equation.

mAB + mBC = mAC

x + 4 + 4 = 3x + 2

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: x + 8 = 3x + 2
Isolate x terms: 8 = 2x + 2
Isolate x term: 6 = 2x
Isolate x: 3 = x
Rewrite: x = 3

Step 3: Find AB

Define: mAB = x + 4
Substitute in x: mAB = 3 + 4
Add: mAB = 7

Suppose that you borrow $3000.00 from a friend and promise to pay back $4935.00 in 3 years. What simple interest rate will you p

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

the simple interest rate is 18.00%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the simple interest rate is shown below:

Amount = Principal × (1 + rate)^years

$4,935 = $3,000 × (1 + rate)^3

After solving it, the rate of percentage is 18.00%

Hence, the simple interest rate is 18.00%

An astronaut drops a rock into a crater of the moon. The distance, d(t), in meters, the rock travels after t seconds can be mode

ASHA 777 [7]

The average rate of change of the position of an object with respect to time is the average speed of the object, so to find the average speed of the rock over the interval [5,10], we are going to use the average rate of change formula: $V(t)= \frac{d(b)-d(a)}{b-a}$
where
$V(t)$ is the average rate of change (the speed)
$d(a)$ is the position function evaluated at $a$
$d(b)$ is the position function evaluated at $b$
$a$ is the first point in the interval
$b$ is the second point in the interval

We know for our problem that the first point in the interval is 5 and the second point is 10, so $a=5$ and $b=10$ . Lets replace those values in our formula:
$V(t)= \frac{d(b)-d(a)}{b-a}$
$V(t)= \frac{d(10)-d(5)}{10-5}$
$V(t)= \frac{0.8(10^2)-0.8(5^2)}{10-5}$
$V(t)= \frac{80-20}{5}$
$V(t)= \frac{60}{5}$
$V(t)=12$

We can conclude that the speed of the rock between 5 and 10 seconds is 12 meters per second.
