Answer:

6 pairs

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given a ratio/proportion problem and 3 values and 1 variable then we can use the Rule of three to solve this problem. We simply multiply the diagonal values available and divide by the 3 value to find the variable of the ratio like so...

4 pairs  <======>   $90.52

d pairs  <======>   $135.78

(4 * 135.78) / 90.52 = 6 pairs

Finally, we can see that Justin ended up buying a total of 6 pairs of sneakers.

A circle is increased to have a circumference that is 4 times larger than the original. Which of the following options best desc
kogti [31]
Area of a circle is directly proportional to the square of radius of the circle while the circumference is proportional to the radius of the circle. This means that if the radius of a circle is increased x times, then its area will be increased to x^2 times the original area, and the circumference will increase to x times the original circumference.

Thus when the radius is doubled, or in other words if radius mad 2 time the original radius, the area of circle will become 2^2 = 4 time the original area. The circumference will become 2 times the original circumference.

We can calculate exact area and circumference of a circle from its radius using the following equations:

Area of circle = (pi/4)*r^2

Circumference of circle = 2*pi*r

Where r is the radius of the circle.

I know this is a lot, sorry.

What is the average rate of change for the function f(x)=3x^2 -5 on the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ −1 ?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = -1 and a = -3

The average rate of change = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

f(b) = f(-1) = 3(-1)^2 - 5 = 3 - 5 = -2

f(a) = f(-3) = 3(-3)^2 - 5 =27 - 5 = 22

f(b) - f(a) = -2 - 22 = -24

b - a = -1 + 3 = 2

\frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} = -24/2 = -12
