Answer:

The average rate of change is two feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of an arrow shot up into the air from a height of three feet is given by the function:

h(t)=-2t^2+12t+3

And we want to find its average rate of change from one second the four seconds.

The average rate of change is synonymous with the slope. Therefore, we can evaluate the height of the arrow after the first and fourth seconds, and find the slope between them.

After the first second, the height of the arrow is:

h(1)=-2(1)^2+12(1)+3=13

And after the fourth second, the height of the arrow is:

h(4)=-2(4)^2+12(4)+3=19

This yields two points: (1, 13) and (4, 19).

The slope between them is:

\displaystyle m=\frac{19-13}{4-1}=\frac{6}{3}=2

Therefore, the average rate of change from one second to four seconds is two feet per second.

What is 41/19 to the nearest tenth
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

41/9 is 2.15789473684

since you need it to the nearest tenth, just get rid of the other numbers past the five, you will then have 2.15

since you are looking for the nearest tenth, you need to look at the 2nd number after the decimal place to determine whether it rounds up or down. ( a helpful rule is 5 or above, give it a shove. 4 or below, leave it alone. because the 2nd digit is 5 you need to give the 1 a shove and turn it into a 2. Since you gave the 5 a shove, you need to get rid of that 2nd digit in your answer.

FINAL ANSWER: 2.2

Are the triangles below similar? Is yes, explain how you know. If not, explain.
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Yes the triangles are similar.

There is a common rate of dilation from the second triangle to the first. Each side can be multiplied/divided by three to find the other length.

I hope is helps.
