Answer:

3/6 of a minute

Step-by-step explanation:

3/6 can also be simplified to 1/2. So, 1/2 of a minute is 30 seconds. 2/6 can be simplified to 1/3. So, 1/3 of an hour is 20 minutes. 30 seconds is very much shorter than 20 minutes. Thus, 3/6 of a minute is shorter than 2/6 fo an hour.

A map of the United States has a scale of 1 inches = 300 miles. The distance on the map from Boise, Idaho, to Phoenix, Arizona,

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The distance is 750 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we create a proportion. On the left would be the scale factor. On the right would be the Idaho to Arizona distance.

1in / 300 mi = 2.5in / x mi

Now we can cross multiply to find the distance.

300 * 2.5 = 1 * x

750 mi = x

Find, if it exists, a value c in the interval [1, 4] such that the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) = 12<img src="https://te

ella [17]

Answer:

c = 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is a continuous and differentiable function on the interval, so the Mean Value Theorem guarantees a value for c exists.

The average slope is ...

m = (f(4) -f(1))/(4 -1) = (24 -12)/3 = 4

The point at which the derivative is 4 is ...

f'(c) = 6/√c = 4

√c = 6/4

c = 2.25
