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.
For this case we have the following equation:

The variables are:
t: time in hours
d (t): distance traveled in miles.
We evaluate the distance traveled after 4 hours.
So we have that for t = 4:
Answer:
d (4) = 68
This means that after 4 hours Joanna cycled for 68 miles total
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance that you travelled in your hummer between Olympia and Spokane is 319.4 miles.
You fill up your gas tank with 28.68 gallons of premium gasoline that costs $2.89 per gallon. This means that the total cost of premium gasoline that you bought would be
2.89 × 28.68 = $82.8852
your gas mileage in miles per gallon is 319.4/28.68 = 11.14 miles per gallon.
Therefore, if it costs $82.8852 to drive 319.4 miles,
then the cost of just one mile in your hummer would be
82.8852/319.4 = $0.26 per mile.
Answer:
702 can't be written as the product of 2 prime numbers because if you divide 702 by 2 then you get 351 and that is not a prime number. Therefore, 702 is a prime number.
The prime factorization of 703 is 19 × 37. Since it has a total of 2 prime factors, 703 is a composite number.
