A scuba diver dove from the surface of the ocean to an elevation of −49 9/10 feet at a rate of −11.1 feet per minute. After spen

ding 14.75 minutes at that elevation, the diver ascended to an elevation of −18 9/10 feet. The total time for the dive so far was 21 1/8minutes. What was the rate of change in the diver's elevation during the ascent? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Descent time: 4.25 min
hover time: 12.75 min
19.125 - 4.25-12.75 = 2.125 min

So, the ascent rate was (-28.9 - (-79.9))ft/2.125min = 24.0 ft/min

Answer:

A.) gf(x) = 3x^2 + 12x + 9

B.) g'(x) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) The two given functions are:

f(x) = (x + 2)^2 and g(x) = 3(x - 1)

Open the bracket of the two functions

f(x) = (x + 2)^2

f(x) = x^2 + 2x + 2x + 4

f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4

and

g(x) = 3(x - 1)

g(x) = 3x - 3

To find gf(x), substitute f(x) for x in g(x)

gf(x) = 3( x^2 + 4x + 4 ) - 3

gf(x) = 3x^2 + 12x + 12 - 3

gf(x) = 3x^2 + 12x + 9

Where

a = 3, b = 12, c = 9

B.) To find g '(12), you must first find the inverse function of g(x) that is g'(x)

To find g'(x), let g(x) be equal to y. Then, interchange y and x for each other and make y the subject of formula

Y = 3x + 3

X = 3y + 3

Make y the subject of formula

3y = x - 3

Y = x/3 - 3/3

Y = x/3 - 1

Therefore, g'(x) = x/3 - 1

For g'(12), substitute 12 for x in g' (x)

g'(x) = 12/4 - 1

g'(x) = 3 - 1

g'(x) = 2.

emmasim [6.3K]
To write the function correctly, it is important to assign variables correctly and understand the situation of the problem clearly. For this, we let y the number of people and x as the number of songs played.

At x = 0   y = 567
at x = 1   y = 567 - 567(1/3)
at x = 2   y = 567 - 567(1/3)(1/3)
at x = 3   y = 567 - 567(1/3)(1/3)(1/3)

Therefore, the number of people left after x songs would be represented by the equation:

y = 567 - 567(1/3)x
y = 567 ( 1- x/3 )
