Instruction: Find the average rate of change for the scenario below.
A rocket is 1 mile above the earth in 30 seconds and 5 miles
above the earth in 150 seconds. What is the rockets rate of
change in miles per second?
Rate of Change
miles/second
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the coordinates (30, 1) and (150, 5) to solve this. Time is always an x thing, while things like distance and weight and value are y things. Put them into the slope formula:
[tex]m(\frac{miles}{sec})=\frac{5-1}{150-30}=\frac{4}{120}=\frac{1}{30}[/tex] This translates to:
The rocket is ascending at a constant rate of 1 mile every 30 seconds; or, conversely, for every 30 seconds the rocket is flying, it is traveling 1 mile.

In performing a one-way ANOVA, ________ measures the variability of the observed values around their respective means by summing the squared differences between each observed value of the response and its corresponding treatment mean.
Answer: SS Error
Step-by-step explanation:
The SS Error refers to the sum of the squares of the deviations of the observations, from their mean. It is simply the total variance from the observations on the study.
In performing a one-way ANOVA, the SS Error measures the variability of the observed values around their respective means and this is done through the summation of the squared differences between each observed value of the response and its corresponding treatment mean.

9514 1404 393
Answer:
geometric sequence
Step-by-step explanation:
The terms of the sequence have a common ratio of -12/3 = -4, so the sequence is geometric. The general term is ...
an = 3(-4)^(n-1)
so the sum can be written as ...

The salt content in snack bags of pretzels is Normally distributed, with a mean of 180 mg and a standard deviation of 15 mg. Eighty four percent of bags have a salt content higher than which value?
Find the z-table here.
165.2 mg
179.2 mg
187.0 mg
194.9 mg
I think its (A), 165.2mg
Answer: Yes you are correct. The answer is choice A
============================================================
Explanation:
If you used the z-table, you should find that P(Z < 1) = 0.84 approximately.
So by symmetry, P(Z > -1) = 0.84 approximately as well.
We'll convert the z score z = -1 into its corresponding x score
z = (x-mu)/sigma
-1 = (x-180)/15
-15 = x-180
x-180 = -15
x = -15+180
x = 165
We don't land on any of the answer choices listed, but we get fairly close to 165.2, which is choice A. So you are correct.
I have a feeling that the table you have is probably more accurate than the one I'm using, so it's possible that you'd land exactly on 165.2 when following the steps above.

Answer:
(5, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
x-coordinates measure the distance to the right of the y-axis. Moving a point 4 units to the right adds 4 to its x-coordinate.
y-coordinates measure distance up from the x-axis. Moving a point 4 units down subtracts 4 from its y-coordinate.
(1, -2) +(4, -4) = (1 +4, -2 -4) = (5, -6) . . . . image of translated point

Step-by-step explanation:
Two sides of a triangle have lengths 13 m and 19 m. The angle between them is increasing at a rate of 2°/min. How fast is the length of the third side increasing when the angle between the sides of fixed length is 60°? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Answer:
The third side is increasing at an approximate rate of about 0.444 meters per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a triangle with two sides having constant lengths of 13 m and 19 m. The angle between them is increasing at a rate of 2° per minute and we want to find the rate at which the third side of the triangle is increasing when the angle is 60°.
Let the angle between the two given sides be θ and let the third side be c.
Essentially, given dθ/dt = 2°/min and θ = 60°, we want to find dc/dt.
First, convert the degrees into radians:
[tex]\displaystyle 2^\circ \cdot \frac{\pi \text{ rad}}{180^\circ} = \frac{\pi}{90}\text{ rad}[/tex]
Hence, dθ/dt = π/90.
From the Law of Cosines:
[tex]\displaystyle c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos \theta[/tex]
Since a = 13 and b = 19:
[tex]\displaystyle c^2 = (13)^2 + (19)^2 - 2(13)(19)\cos \theta[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]\displaystyle c^2 = 530 - 494\cos \theta[/tex]
Take the derivative of both sides with respect to t:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}\left[c^2\right] = \frac{d}{dt}\left[ 530 - 494\cos \theta\right][/tex]
Implicitly differentiate:
[tex]\displaystyle 2c\frac{dc}{dt} = 494\sin\theta \frac{d\theta}{dt}[/tex]
We want to find dc/dt given that dθ/dt = π/90 and when θ = 60° or π/3. First, find c:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} c &= \sqrt{530 - 494\cos \theta}\\ \\ &=\sqrt{530 -494\cos \frac{\pi}{3} \\ \\ &= \sqrt{530 - 494\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)} \\ \\&= \sqrt{283\end{aligned}[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]\displaystyle 2\left(\sqrt{283}\right) \frac{dc}{dt} = 494\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\left(\frac{\pi}{90}\right)[/tex]
Solve for dc/dt:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dc}{dt} = \frac{494\sin \dfrac{\pi}{3} \cdot \dfrac{\pi}{90}}{2\sqrt{283}}[/tex]
Evaluate. Hence:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \frac{dc}{dt} &= \frac{494\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)\cdot \dfrac{\pi}{90}}{2\sqrt{283}}\\ \\ &= \frac{\dfrac{247\sqrt{3}\pi}{90}}{2\sqrt{283}}\\ \\ &= \frac{247\sqrt{3}\pi}{180\sqrt{283}} \\ \\ &\approx 0.444\text{ m/min}\end{aligned}[/tex]
The third side is increasing at an approximate rate of about 0.444 meters per minute.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
0.444 m/min
Step-by-step explanation:
I find this kind of question to be answered easily by a graphing calculator.
The length of the third side can be found using the law of cosines. If the angle of interest is C, the two given sides 'a' and 'b', then the third side is ...
c = √(a² +b² -2ab·cos(C))
Since C is a function of time, its value in degrees can be written ...
C = 60° +2t° . . . . . where t is in minutes, and t=0 is the time of interest
Using a=13, and b=19, the length of the third side is ...
c(t) = √(13² +19² -2·13·19·cos(60° +2t°))
Most graphing calculators are able to compute a numerical value of the derivative of a function. Here, we use the Desmos calculator for that. (Angles are set to degrees.) It tells us the rate of change of side 'c' is ...
0.443855627418 m/min ≈ 0.444 m/min
_____
Additional comment
At that time, the length of the third side is about 16.823 m.
__
c(t) reduces to √(530 -494cos(π/90·t +π/3))
Then the derivative is ...
[tex]c'(t)=\dfrac{494\sin{\left(\dfrac{\pi}{90}t+\dfrac{\pi}{3}\right)}\cdot\dfrac{\pi}{90}}{2\sqrt{530-494\cos{\left(\dfrac{\pi}{90}t+\dfrac{\pi}{3}}}\right)}}}\\\\c'(0)=\dfrac{247\pi\sqrt{3}}{180\sqrt{283}}\approx0.443855...\ \text{m/min}[/tex]

The number of people attending graduate school at a university may be
modeled by the quadratic regression equation y = 8x2 - 40x+6, where x
represents the year. Based on the regression equation, which year is the best
prediction for when 1206 people will attend graduate school?
A. Year 15
B. Year 18
C. Year 24
D. Year 20
Answer:
15 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the quadratic regression model:
y = 8x² - 40x+6 ; where
y = Number of people attending graduate school ;
x = number of years
The value of x when y = 1206
The equation becomes :
1206 = 8x² - 40x+6
1206 - 6 = 8x² - 40x
1200 = 8x² - 40x
Divide through by 8
150 = x² - 5x
x² - 5x - 150 = 0
x² - 15x + 10x - 150 = 0
x(x - 15) + 10(x - 15)
x - 15 = 0 or x + 10 = 0
x = 15 or x = - 10
Number of years can't be negative,
Hence, x = 15 years

What is the distance between (8, -3) and (4, - 7)?
Choose 1 answer:
Will GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll find the distance using the all-famous "Distance Formula." You'll probably come across it quite a bit, so it's best to have it written down somewhere.
The Distance Formula: [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
Our points are (8, -3) and (4, -7), so we'll plug in those numbers accordingly.
For reference:

[tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \sqrt{32}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between 2 points can be determined with the following formula.
[tex]d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+ (y_2-y_1)^2[/tex]
In this formula, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the 2 points. We want to find the distance between the points (8, -3) and (4, -7). If we match the value with its corresponding variable, then we see:
x₁= 8 y₁= -3 x₂= 4 y₂ = -7Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]d= \sqrt{(4-8)^2+(-7--3)^2[/tex]
Solve inside the parentheses.
(4-8) = -4 (-7 - -3) = (-7+3)= -4[tex]d= \sqrt {(-4)^2+(-4)^2[/tex]
Solve the exponents.
(-4)² = -4 * -4 = 16[tex]d= \sqrt {16+16[/tex]
Add.
[tex]d= \sqrt {32}[/tex]
This radical can be simplified, but since it is an answer choice, we can leave it as is.
The distance between the points (8, -3) and (4, -7) is √32 and choice C is correct.
Suppose the variable x is represented by a standard normal distribution. What is the probability of x > 0.3 ? Please specify your answer in decimal terms and round your answer to the nearest hundredth (e.g., enter 12 percent as 0.12).
Answer: 0.38
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the variable x is represented by a standard normal distribution, the probability of x > 0.3 will be calculated thus:
P(x > 0.3)
Then, we will use a standard normal table
P(z > 0.3)
= 1 - p(z < 0.3)
= 1 - 0.62
= 0.38
Therefore, p(x > 0.3) = 0.38
The probability of x > 0.3 is 0.38.

14. The area of 10 square plots is 160 ares. Find the length in metres of the side of each plot (3mks)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 are = 100 m²
Assuming the ten squares are congruent, the area of each square is 160/10 = 16 are
16 are × 100 m²/are = 1600 m²
each side is √1600 = 40 m
The length of side of plot is 40 meters.
What is area?The total space occupied by a flat (2-D) surface or shape of an object is known as area.
Draw a square on a piece of paper with a pencil. It has two dimensions. The term "area" refers to the area that the shape occupies on the paper.
Now picture your square as being comprised of smaller unit squares. The number of unit squares required to cover a 2-D shape's total surface area is used to calculate its area.
Given the area of 10 square plot is 160 are,
here 1 are = 100 m²
area of 10 square plot = 160 x 100 = 16,000 m²
area of 1 square plot = 16000/10 = 1600 m²
area of square is "a²"
where a is side of square
area = a² = 1600 m²
a = √1600
a = 40 m
Hence the length of side of each plot is 40 meters.

Ivan caught a total of 7 2/5 pounds of fish one day. Of the fish caught, 4 5/8 pounds were sea bass and the rest were mackerel. He gave away 1 7/8 pounds of mackerel. How many pounds of mackerel did he have left.
Given:
Total fish (Sea bass and mackerel) = [tex]7\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex] pounds
Sea bass = [tex]4\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] pounds
He gave away [tex]1\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex] pounds of mackerel.
To find:
The remaining mackerel.
Solution:
We know that,
Mackerel = Total fish - Sea bass
[tex]\text{Mackerel}=7\dfrac{2}{5}-4\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Mackerel}=\dfrac{37}{5}-\dfrac{37}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Mackerel}=\dfrac{296-185}{40}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Mackerel}=\dfrac{111}{40}[/tex]
He gave away [tex]1\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex] pounds of mackerel. So, the remaining mackerel is:
[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{111}{40}-1\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{111}{40}-\dfrac{15}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{111-75}{40}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{36}{40}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{9}{10}[/tex]
Therefore, the remaining Mackerel is [tex]\dfrac{9}{10}[/tex] pounds or 0.9 pounds.
Answer:
The amount of Mackerel left is 9/10.
Step-by-step explanation:
total fish = 7 2/5 pounds
sea bass = 4 5/8
The amount of mackerel =
[tex]7\frac{2}{5}-4\frac{5}{8}\\\\=\frac{37}{5}-\frac{37}{8}\\\\=\frac{296-185}{40}\\\\=2 \frac{31}{40}[/tex]
Mackerel left =
[tex]2 \frac{31}{40}-1\frac{7}{8}\\\\= \frac{111}{40}-\frac{15}{8}\\\\=\frac{111-75}{40}\\\\=\frac{36}{40}\\\\=\frac{9}{10}[/tex]
