By definition the rate of change of a function is given by:
 AVR =  \frac{Change In Y}{Change In X}
 Or equivalently:
 AVR = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}
 Substituting the values given in the problem we have:
 AVR = \frac{1.5}{18}
 Rewriting we have:
 AVR = 0.08
 Answer:
 
the rate of change of the ramp is:
 
AVR = 0.08

Umberto buys a game for $7.89 and some batteries for $5.49. He pays with a $20 bill. Which is the best estimate of change he sho
Anika [276]

The change is the remaining money that is needed to take from the seller so a change of Umberto will be $6.62.

<h3>What is subtraction?</h3>

To subtract in mathematics is to take something away from a group or a number of objects.

The group's total number of items decreases or becomes lower when we subtract from it.

Given that,

Umberto buys a game for $7.89 and some batteries for $5.49.

Total money of buying = 7.89 + 5.49 = $13.38

Now he gives a $20 bill.

Remaining (change) = 20 - 13.38

⇒ $6.62

Hence "The change of Umberto will be $6.62".

A cube measures 3.0 CM on each side and has a mass of 25g. What is the density?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

D ≈ 0.925926 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Density = Mass / Volume

Step 1: Define

M = 25 g

V = (3 cm)³ = 27 cm³

D = ?

Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate for Density

D = 25g / 27 cm³

D = 25/27 g/cm³

D ≈ 0.925926 g/cm³
