Answer:

difference = 6 feet 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest shot put throw by a boy is given as 25 feet 8 inches . The longest shot put throw by a girl is given as 19 feet and 3 inches. The number of times the longest shot put throw by a boy is greater than by a girl can be computed as follow.

The question asked us to find the difference between the throw. The difference between the throw is the boy throw minus the girls throw. Mathematically,

The longest boys throw = 25 feet 8 inches

The longest girls throw =  19 feet 3 inches

difference = The longest boy throw  - The longest girl throw

difference =  25 feet 8 inches -   19 feet 3 inches

difference = 6 feet 5 inches

Which is a stretch of an exponential growth function? f(x) = Two-thirds (two-thirds) Superscript x f(x) = Three-halves (two-thir
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

f(x) = Three-halves (three-halves) Superscript x

f(x) = Two-thirds (three-halves) Superscript x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a function in the form of f(x) = ab^x

Where, a and b are any constant,

is called exponential function,

There are two types of exponential function,

  • Growth function : If b > 1,
  • Decay function : if 0 < b < 1,

Since, In

f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{2}{3})^x

\frac{2}{3} < 1

Thus, it is a decay function.

in f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{2}{3})^x

\frac{2}{3} < 1

Thus, it is a decay function.

in f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{3}{2})^x

\frac{3}{2} > 1

Thus, it is a growth function.

in f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{3}{2})^x

\frac{3}{2} > 1

Thus, it is a growth function.

A high school coach needs to buy new athletic shorts for the 15 members of the basketball team. The coach must spend less than $
AfilCa [17]
If the budget is $200 and he have 15 members then we have divide the two. 200 / 15 = $13.33 per shorts. 15x =< $200. x represents 13.33. So the solution represents the coach may spend up to $13.33 per pair of shorts. If it was even 1 cent more than $13.33 than he wouldn't have enough.So he can spend up to $13.33 or less per pair of shorts.

The horsepower , H(s), required for a racecar to overcome wind resistance is given by the function : H(s) = 0.003s^2+0.07s-0.027
mote1985 [20]
Average rate of change = [H(100) - H(80)] / (100 - 80)
H(100) = 0.003(100)^2 + 0.07(100) - 0.027 = 0.003(10000) + 0.07(100) - 0.027 = 30 + 7 - 0.027 = 36.973

H(80) = 0.003(80)^2 + 0.07(80) - 0.027 = 0.003(6400) + 0.07(80) - 0.027 = 19.2 + 5.6 - 0.027 = 24.773

Average rate of change = (36.973 - 24.773)/(100 - 80) = 12.2/20 = 0.61
