A parachutist's rate during a freefall reaches 126 miles per hour. What is this rate in feet per second? At this rate, how many

feet will the parachutist fall during 10 seconds of free-fall? In your computations, use the fact that 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet. Do not round your answers. ​

Answer:

0.035

.35

Step-by-step explanation:

in one hour or in 3600 seconds the parachuterfalls 126 miles which means we have the following ratio

seconds:distance

3600:126

we want to find

1:x

To find x we divide 126 by 3600 (we do this because we divided 3600 by 3600 to get 1)

we get 0.035

This means that the parachuter falls at a rate of 0.035 ft/s

To find the distance fallen in 10 seconds we simply multiply 0.035 by 10

I do this and get .35

The population of big cats in Africa is increasing at a rate of 5% per year. At the
sesenic [268]

Answer:

a) 10,500 big cats

b) 13,401 big cats

c) 33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:  

A = P (1 + r) t  

Where:  

p = original population  

r = growing rate (decimal form; 5/100= 0.05)

t= years  

A = population after t years  

Replacing with the values given:  

a) At 2005, 1 year passed since 2004 (t=1)

A = 10,000 (1+ 0.05)^1

A = 10,500 big cats

b)

At 2010, 6 years passed since 2004 (2010-2004= 6)

A = 10,000 (1+ 0.05)^6

A = 13,401 big cats

c)

50,000 < 10,000 (1+ 0.05)^t

Solving for t:

50,000/10,000 < 1.05^t

5 < 1.05^t

log 5 < log 1.05^t

log 5 < t ( log 1.05)

log 5 / log 1.05 < t

32.9 years < t

33 years  = t

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
