A scuba diver dove from the surface of the ocean to an elevation of −49 9/10 feet at a rate of −9.5 feet per minute. After spend

ing 10 minutes at that elevation, the diver ascended to an elevation of −28 9/10 feet. The total time for the dive so far was 17 1/8 minutes. What was the rate of change in the diver's elevation during the ascent? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

Rate of change  =  4,06 f/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The ascendent length  28 9/10   =  289/ 10

The time for that ascendent maneuver is total time 17 1/8 minutes  - spended time in the elevation 10 minutes, then

17 1/8  =  137/8

137/8  - 10   =  ( 137 - 80 ) /8   =  57/8 minutes

The rate of change in the diver´s elevation is

289 / 10 / 57/8

Rate of change  =  289*8/ 57*10

Rate of change  =  2312 / 570 ft/min

Rate of change  =  4,06 f/min

Solve the system of equations. y = x − 5 and y = x2 − 5x + 3 A. (-4,-9) and (-2,-7) B. (4,-9) and (2,-7) C. (4,-3) and (2,-1) D.
larisa [96]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x - 5 → (1)

y = x² - 5x + 3 → (2)

Substitute y = x² - 5x + 3 into (1)

x² - 5x + 3 = x - 5 ← subtract x - 5 from both sides

x² - 6x + 8 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 2)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

Substitute each of these values into (1) for corresponding values of y

x = 2 → y = 2 - 5 = - 3 ⇒ (2, - 3 )

x = 4 → y = 4 - 5 = - 1 ⇒ (4, - 1 )
