Hi there!

a. Find the displacement by plugging in the values of the interval:

f(2) - f(0) = 0 - 2 = -2 meters.

Average velocity is the slope, thus:

v_{avg} = \frac{f(2) - f(0)}{2 - 0} = \frac{0 - 2}{2 - 0} = -1

The average velocity for the interval is -1 m/s.

b. To find the speed at the endpoints, we must take the derivative to get the velocity equation:

f(t) = t² - 3t +2

f'(t) = 2t - 3, at t = 0, speed = |-3| = 3 m/s. At t = 2, speed = 2(2) - 3 = 1 m/s.

Acceleration is the second derivative, thus:

f''(t) = 2. The acceleration is 2 m/s² for both endpoints.

c. When the body changes direction, the first derivative changes signs. Thus:

0 = 2t - 3

3 = 2t, t = 1.5 sec. This is where the body changes direction.

Jay needs 19 quarts more paint for the outside of his barn than for the inside. If he uses 107 quarts in all, how many gallons o
love history [14]
Let's use q to represent the number of quarts needed.

you would have the following:

2q= 107-19
2q=88
q=44
44 is the number of quarts in a in the barn.
Now you have to divide that number by 4 to get gallons because there is 4 quarts in a gallon.
There are 11 gallons of paint.

Suppose x and y vary together such that x is 7 times as large as y. write a formula that defines x in terms of y.
Ainat [17]
Since y is less than x by 7 times \frac{x}{7}=y so in terms of x we write

4.4 + [4 • 1/4 + 8.6]
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: 4.4 + (4 x 1/4 + 8.6) = 14

Step-by-step explanation: Because starting inside the parenthesis, 4 times 1/4 = 1. Then 8.6 plus 1 = 9.6. Finally, 9.6 plus 4.4 which equals 14. :)

Answer asap............
diamong [38]

Answer:

6+(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is positive but we are subtracting 2. Therefore, the expression is 6 plus -2. It is negative because that is what we are taking away. The plus sign does not mean anything because there is a negative number. When you look at it, you immediately read 6 plus -2 and since it is a negative not a positive then it's subtracting not adding.
