A bird is flying at an average altitude of 10 meters above the ground. After 3 seconds, it settles on a branch that is 3 meters above the ground. Interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the bird’s altitude. Give your answer to the nearest hundredth and remember that the bird is descending.(1 point)
1. 2.27
2. -2.33
3. 1.58
4. -416.67
5. -3.75
I apologize for the mistake again. You are correct. The correct interpretation of the quotient is that the bird is descending at a rate of approximately -2.33 meters per second. Thank you for pointing out the error.
To find the rate of change in the whale's depth, we need to divide the change in depth by the change in time.
The change in depth is 15 meters (initial depth) minus 0 meters (final depth at the surface) = 15 meters.
The change in time is 9.5 seconds.
Therefore, the quotient is 15 meters / 9.5 seconds = 1.58 meters/second.
Interpreting the quotient, we can say that the whale is ascending at a rate of approximately 1.58 meters per second.
no
2.33 is incorrect
To find how much the car's value decreases per month, we need to divide the decrease in value by the number of months.
The decrease in value is $2,500.
The number of months is 6.
Therefore, the quotient is $2,500 / 6 = $416.67 per month.
So, the car's value decreases by approximately $416.67 per month.
A restaurant uses a 15-pound bag of flour in 4 days. Each day, the bag of flour gets lighter as more flour is used. How much does the average amount of flour in the bag change each day? (Round to the nearest hundredth.)(1 point)
