6 0

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is odd, so if he makes all 6 the number wouldn't make sense, because for every successful field goal he gets is 2points; so mathematically it wouldn't make sense.

Find the average rate of change of f ( x ) = 3 x 2 − 9 on the interval [ 2 , b ] . Your answer will be an expression involving b

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

$m = 3b+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x)=3x^2 - 9$

Required

The average rate over $[2,b]$

Average rate (m) is calculated using:

$m = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

Where

$[a,b] = [2,b]$

So, we have:

$m = \frac{f(b) - f(2)}{b - 2}$

Calculate f(b) and f(2)

$f(x)=3x^2 - 9$

$f(b)=3b^2 - 9$

$f(2)=3*2^2 - 9 = 12 - 9 = 3$

So, we have:

$m = \frac{f(b) - f(2)}{b - 2}$

$m = \frac{3b^2 - 9 - 3}{b - 2}$

$m = \frac{3b^2 - 12}{b - 2}$

Expand the numerator

$m = \frac{3b^2 + 6b-6b-12}{b - 2}$

Factorize

$m = \frac{b(3b + 6)-2(3b+6)}{b - 2}$

Factor out 3b + 6

$m = \frac{(b -2)(3b+6)}{b - 2}$

Cancel out b - 2

$m = 3b+6$

1. A tank is 3/5 full of water. After 330 litres of water is drawn out, it becomes 2/7 full. Find the capacity of the tank in li

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

1050

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = full capacity

$\frac{3}{5} x=\frac{2}{7} x+330$

Move the variable to the left side by subtracting both sides by $\frac{2}{7} x$

$\frac{3}{5} x-\frac{2}{7}x=\frac{2}{7} x+330 -\frac{2}{7}x$

$\frac{3}{5} x-\frac{2}{7} x=330$

Combine the like terms (don't forget about common denominator)

$\frac{21}{35} x-\frac{10}{35} x=330$

$\frac{11}{35} x=330$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{35}{11}$ to isolate the x

$(\frac{35}{11})\frac{11}{35} x=330(\frac{35}{11})$

$x = 1050$
