Answer:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack (r), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack (\Delta c), in monetary units, divided by the change in time (\Delta t), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:

r = \frac{\$\,5.31-\$\,0.88}{2000-1980}

r = \$\,0.22\,\frac{1}{yr}

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.

A farmer planted corn in two different fields. He planted 500 seeds of regular corn in Field A and 500 seeds of experimental cor
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

1. More pollination process in the regular corn planted in field A than that of field B.

2. Low pest and insect attack on corn planted in field A compared to that of B.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pollination is the process in which a plant becomes fertilized, so as to produced seeds. The process requires some agent which could be; air, human, wind etc.

Therefore more pollination of the corn planted in field A than those in B would lead to more yield (ears of corn harvested) than that of B.

2. Pests and insects are agents which could reduce the yield of the corn after harvest. Comparing the two fields A and B, if the corn planted in field A were not affected by pests or insects, while those planted in B were affected, then more ears of corn would be harvested in field A.

How do I find the missing sides of this triangle by using trigonometry
Lemur [1.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH-CAH-TOA.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

You're given an angle, the adjacent side to that angle, and the hypotenuse.  So use cosine.

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

cos 37° = 48 / x

Multiply both sides by x.

x cos 37° = 48

Divide both sides by cos 37°.

x = 48 / cos 37°

If desired, use a calculator to evaluate.

x ≈ 60.1
