Answer:
$149
Step-by-step explanation:
He spent 55 on sneakers at first, then he recieved 30 more, and gave 20 to the mom, which i added to the equation, and what he has left i also added.
The equation of a line in slope intercept form is y=mx+b, which when you plug in the numbers becomes y=2x-1.
Answer:
<em>The average rate of descent over the last 3 hours is 1000 ft/h.
</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Rate of Change</u>
It's usually referred to as to the variation that one magnitude has in reference to another. The reference magnitude can be time t. The rate of change is calculated as the slope of the curve that represents the function.
The image shows the variation of Mike's height above sea level in feet with time in hours. We need to calculate the rate of change in the last three hours (from 7 to 10).
The rate of change can be calculated with the slope of the line, which formula is:

Let's pick two points (7,4000) (10,1000):


Note the rate of change is negative, which means the height is decreasing.
The average rate of descent over the last 3 hours is 1000 ft/h.
Answer:
- $52
- this estimate is a little low
Explanation:
a) I might choose 6 1/2 hours and $8 per hour, so the estimated earnings would be ...
6(8) +(1/2)(8) = 52 dollars . . . . estimated earnings
These values are purposely chosen so that one is a little high and the other is a little low, hopefully producing a closer estimate than if both numbers were high (as 7 hours, $8, for example).

b) Using 800 instead of 790 means the pay estimate is about 1/80 = 1.25% high.
Using 6 1/2 instead of 6 3/4 means the hours estimate is about 1/27 ≈ 3.7% low.
So, we expect the product of these values to be slightly low, perhaps by about 2.5%.

<em>Comment on estimating</em>
If you can estimate the error in the estimate with some reasonable accuracy, you can use that to adjust the estimate to a pretty close value.
