Answer:
a. 3/4 inches per minute
b. -1 1/8 inches per minute
c. B is fastest; 1 1/8 is more than 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
A <em>change</em> is a <em>difference</em>. A <em>rate of change</em> is <em>one difference divided by another</em>, usually the change in y-value divided by the change in x-value.
__
<h3>a.</h3>
The change in elevation is the difference between the elevation at the end of the period (6 inches) and the elevation at the beginning of the period (3 inches). The change in time period is the difference between the end time (8 min) and the beginning time (4 min).
change in elevation per minute = (6 -3 inches)/(8 -4 min)
= (3 inches)/(4 min) = 3/4 inches/minute
__
<h3>b.</h3>
Similarly, ...
change in elevation per minute = (3 -7 1/2 inches)/(18 -14 min)
= (-4 1/2 inches)/(4 min) = -1 1/8 inches/minute
__
<h3>c.</h3>
We know that 3/4 is more than -1 1/8, but when we talk about the "fastest rate of change", we're generally interested in the magnitude--the value without the sign. That means we understand a rate of change of -1 1/8 inches per minute to be "faster" than a rate of change of 3/4 inches per minute.
The rate of change from Part B is fastest. 1 1/8 inches per minute is more than 3/4 inches per minute.
Answer: d
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of the rectangle.
Find the area of the base of the semicircle.
12 in would be the diameter, divide by 2 to get the radius.
Plug this into the formula.
Since we do not have a full circle but a semi one instead, we must divide our result by 2.
Add both areas.
180+56.52=236.52
For numbers 15-17, we need to remember that two of a triangle's angles are always acute and the third angle will allow us to classify the triangle based on its angles. now that we know this, let's look at #15. the first two angles listed are acute, and the third is an obtuse angle, therefore it is an obtuse triangle. on #16 we have three acute angles, so it is an acute triangle. #17 has two acute angles and a right angle so it is a right triangle.
on numbers 21-23, we need to know that a triangle with all congruent sides is called equilateral, a triangle with two equal sides is isosceles, and a triangle with no equal sides is called scalene. #21 shows two equal sides so it is an isosceles triangle. #22 has three equal sides so it is an equilateral triangle. #23 has no equal sides so it is scalene. hope this helped! :)
Answer: I think the answer is D
