The average yearly growth rate of the height of the tree is 2 1/3 feet

Given:

original height of the pine tree = 40 1/2 feet

Height in next 7 1/2 years = 57 feet

<em>Change in height = Height in next 7 1/2 years - original height of the pine tree</em>

= 57 height - 40 1/2 feet

= 17 1/2 feet

<em>Average growth rate yearly = Change in height / number of years</em>

= 17 1/2 feet ÷ 7 1/2 years

= 35/2 ÷ 15/2

= 35/2 × 2/15

= (35 × 2) / (2 × 15)

= 70/30

= 2 10/30

= 2 1/3 feet

Therefore, the average yearly growth rate of the height of the tree is 2 1/3 feet

Find the centroid of the region that is bounded below by the​ x-axis and above by the ellipse left parenthesis StartFraction x s
Mashcka [7]

Answer with explanation:

The equation of the ellipse is ,whose centroid we have to find is

      \rightarrow \frac{x^2}{4}+\frac{y^2}{9}=1

The curve cuts the x axis at (2,0) and (-2,0) and y axis at (0,3) and (0,-3).

We have to find centroid of the Ellipse on the right of y axis.

Center of gravity will lie on x axis.

       \bar{x}=\frac{\int \int {x} \, dx dy}{\int \int dxdy}\\\\\bar{y}=\frac{\int \int {y} \, dx dy}{\int \int dxdy}\\\\ \bar{x}=\frac{\int\limits^2_0 {x} \, dx \int\limits^3_{-3} {1} \, dy}{\int\limits^2_0 {1} \, dx \int\limits^3_{-3} {1} \, dy}\\\\\bar{y}=0\\\\\bar{x}=\frac{(\frac{x^2}{2})\left \{ {{x=2} \atop {x=0}} \right \times (y)\left \{ {{y=3} \atop {y=-3}} \right.}{(x) \left \{ {{x=2} \atop {x=0}} \right \times (y)\left \{ {{y=3} \atop {y=-3}}}

    \bar{x}=\frac{\frac{2^2}{2} \times [3-(-3)]}{2*3}\\\\ \bar{x}=\frac{6}{6}\\\\ \bar{x}=1\\\\ \bar{y}=0\\\\ \text{Center of gravity}=(\bar{x},\bar{y})=(1,0)

Six people are standing in line for concert tickets. Their average age is 27. The average age of the first four people in line i
DanielleElmas [232]

The best answer for this question would be:

 

D. 32

 

In order to get this, you have to get the sum in the line, which is the first four people. So the solution would be: 4(23) = 92

 

For getting the sum of the people in the last 3 would be: 3(34) = 102

 

Next is the sum of everyone which the solution would be: 6(27) = 162

 

So the initial solution that we have now would be: F + 92 - F + 102- F = 162

 

- F + 194 = 162

 

- F = 162 - 194

 

- F = - 32

 

The (F) here or the fourth person’s age would be= -32 / - 1 or 32
