Cos 25=0.90631
cos 25=(the end of the slide to the stairway beneath the top of the slide)/( length of the slide)
length of the slide=60/0.90631=66.2
the length of the slide = 66.2 feet

The number of acres in a region cleared for farming follows the formula a = f (t) = 2t2 where t is the number of months since th
Anit [1.1K]

we are given

a=f(t)=2t^2

we can use average rate of change formula from t=a to t=b

A=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here, we are given from t=1 to t=4

so, we will get formula as

A=\frac{f(4)-f(1)}{4-1}

now, we can plug values

A=\frac{2(4)^2-2(1)^2}{4-1}

now, we can simplify it

A=10

the average rate of change in the number of acres cleared for farming between t = 1 and t = 4  is 10 acres/ month.............Answer

The population of Rock Springs is growing at a constant rate. The expression represents the increase in population in x years.
irakobra [83]

The function is given by

y=45,200 + 1,900x

and is of the form y = mx+b , where m is the rate of change and b is the fixed value ( or we can say initial value)

Now when we compare we get m = 1,900 for our problem .

So the population increases every year by 1,900.
