Answer:

The average rate of change is 1.275

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) from x=a to x=b is given by:

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

The money Terry invested is modeled by the function f(x)=0.01(2)^x where x represents number of days.

The average rate of change from day 2 to day 10 is given by:

\frac{f(10)-f(2)}{10-2}

f(10)=0.01(2)^{10}=10.24

f(2)=0.01(2)^{2}=0.04

The average rate of change becomes:

\frac{10.24-0.04}{8}

=\frac{10.2}{8}=1.275

A dolphin is 42 feet underwater and ascends at a constant rate for 14 seconds until it reaches the surface. Identify and interpr
Cloud [144]
Ok so, based on the graph lets say that x = seconds and  y = depth of dolphin. the interception in both points is when they are at 0 i.e when x is equals 0 and y equals 0. So At 0 seconds, the dolphin is 42 feet below the surface. So we say that x = 0, y = -42 and then the y intercepts = -42 so the point of interception is(0 (seconds),-42(depth of the dolphin)) When the clock says it's 14 seconds, the dolphin is even with the surface (0 below the surface this time). So we say that x = 14, y = 0. In this case The x intercept = 14 (14,0). But we need to calculate The slope with the formula= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = 42/14 = 3. Therefore, the formula for this line is y = 3x - 42.

Factories 24x^2-41x+12
andriy [413]

Answer:

(3x - 4)(8x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 24 × 12 and sum = - 41

The required factors are - 32 and - 9

Use these factors to split the x- term

24x² - 32x - 9x + 12 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 8x(3x - 4) - 3(3x - 4) ← factor out (3x - 4) from each term

= (3x - 4)(8x - 3) ← in factored form

A turtle walks 7/8 of a mile in 50 minutes. What is the unit rate when the turtle’s speed is expressed in miles per hour?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

21/20

Step-by-step explanation:

a) One hour is equivalent to 60 minutes.

So we can multiply 50 minutes by the fraction \frac{1 hour}{60 minutes}, so we could convert 50 minutes to hours.

It is:

50 minutes * \frac{1 hour}{60 minutes}=\frac{50}{60}hours

If we simplify the fraction, we have:

50 minutes = \frac{5}{6}hours

b) In order to express the turtle's speed in miles per hour, we have to divide

\frac{7}{8}miles by  \frac{5}{6}hours

So:

\frac{\frac{7}{8}miles }{\frac{5}{6}hours }

We simplify the expression by multiplying 7 mile by 6 and 8 by 5 hours:

\frac{\frac{7}{8}miles }{\frac{5}{6}hours}=\frac{42 miles}{40 hours} =\frac{21 miles}{20 hours}
