Use the linear slope formula to solve for m:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
using the points (-1,1) and (1,5) you can find the slope for the first interval:
m=(5-1)/(1-(-1))
m=4/2
m=2
you can double check by using the same formula on the second interval, which is (1,5) to (3,9).
m=(9-5)/(3-1)
m=4/2
m=2
therefore, the rate of change is 2.
Answer:
I believe that the answer is 26
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of girls to boys is 13 to 8 so there are 13 girls for every 8 boys so if there are 16 boys (8X2) then there are 26 girls (13X2)
7. Four and 7 tenths
8. Twenty two and eighty nine hundredths
9. Forty Five and Three hundred Twenty Nine Thousandths
10.Twenty seven hundredths
Answer:
The hawk reaches the rabbit at t=4.3 sec
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
h ----> is the height in feet
t ----> is the time in seconds
v ---> the initial velocity in feet pr second
s ----- is the starting height
we have

when the hawk reaches the rabbit the value of h is equal to zero
we have


substitute

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is t=4.3 sec
see the attached figure
