A mountain goat is climbing to the top of a large cliff. The cliff is 50 feet higher than its starting point. If it takes the goat 22 minutes to climb this cliff, interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the goat’s elevation. Give your answer to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)
The quotient that best represents the rate of change in the goat’s elevation is
feet/minute.
i got a bad grade :(( so here's the answers! (ToT)
1. 2.27
2. -2.33
3. 1.58
4. -$416.67
5. -3.75
this is correct for connexus students sooo ywww :p
To find the rate of change in the goat's elevation, we need to divide the change in elevation (50 feet) by the time it took (22 minutes):
Rate of change = Change in elevation / Time taken
Rate of change = 50 feet / 22 minutes
Calculating this quotient gives us:
Rate of change ≈ 2.27 feet/minute
Therefore, the quotient that best represents the rate of change in the goat's elevation is approximately 2.27 feet/minute.
To find the rate of change in the whale's depth, we need to divide the change in depth (15 meters) by the time it took (9.5 seconds):
Rate of change = Change in depth / Time taken
Rate of change = 15 meters / 9.5 seconds
Calculating this quotient gives us:
Rate of change ≈ 1.58 meters/second
Therefore, the quotient that best represents the rate of change in the whale's depth is approximately 1.58 meters/second.
the quick check my guy not the practice
anyone know the answers?
here the answers to quick check
1. -10.48
2.-1.08
3. -0.99
4.-333.33
5.-4
To find the value decrease per month, we need to divide the decrease in value ($2,500) by the number of months (6):
Decrease per month = Decrease in value / Number of months
Decrease per month = $2,500 / 6
Calculating this quotient gives us:
Decrease per month ≈ $416.67
Therefore, the car's value decreases by approximately $416.67 per month.
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)
The quotient that best represents the rate of change in the bird’s altitude is
meters/second.
