Simple...

you have: C(X)=3x+2.00

x=number of minutes

Pay attention to the y=mx+b form where m=slope-->>

3x is the slope...

so it's 3(times the number of minutes) <<---or (x)

This means that the slope is 3, or the fancy way of saying it-->>"rate of change."

The rate of change of the cost of the taxi ride is $3.00 per minute.

Thus, your answer.

Marissa bought a car for $22,000. The value of the car is decreasing at a rate of 10.5% every year. After 5 years, the value of
torisob [31]

Answer: the value of the car will be about $12634

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^ t

Where

A represents the value of the car after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial value of the car.

r represents rate of decay.

From the information given,

P = $22000

r = 10.5% = 10.5/100 = 0.105

t = 5 years

Therefore

A = 22000(1 - 0.105)^5

A = 22000(0.895)^5

A = $12634

Charlize wants to measure the depth of an empty well. She drops a ball from a height of 3 feet into the well
pentagon [3]

Answer:

  about 151 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the ball at a time of 3.1 seconds is given by Charlize's equation as ...

  h(3.1) = -16(3.1)^2 +3 = -150.76 . . . feet

The well is about 151 feet deep.

_____

<em>Comment on this measurement</em>

The speed of sound is sufficiently slow that it will make a difference in the time Charlize records. She would get a more accurate measurement if she were able to <em>see</em> the ball hit bottom.
