A scientist wanted to measure the constant rate of the current in a particular section of the river. She released a tracker into

the river. The tracker sent her back the following information:
After 3.5 seconds since the tracker was released into the river the tracker had traveled 5.5 meters.
After 10.9 seconds since the tracker was released into the river the tracker had traveled 16.5 meters.
What is the constant rate of the current?

Answer:

1.486m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is defined as the change in distance divided by the change in time

Rate = ∆distance/∆time

Distance = 16.5 and 5.5

Time = 10.9 and 3.5

When we put this into the formula above, we have:

Rate of change = 16.5 - 5.5 / 10.9 - 3.5

= 11/7.4

= 1.486m/s

The constant rate of change has been calculated to be equal to 1.486m/s

Given the parent functions f(x) = log10 x and g(x) = 3x − 1, what is f(x) • g(x)?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
We are given with two functions f(x) = log10 x and g(x) = 3x − 1 and is asked for the product of the two functions expressed as f(x) • g(x). The answer then is simply the product of the two functions, that is log x * (3x - 1). log 10 x is equal to log x.
