Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

75 feet per hour is the rate of change in altitude.

Step-by-step explanation:

A climber is on a hike. After 2 hours he is at an altitude of 400 feet.

After 6 hours, he is at an altitude of 400 feet.

We have to determine the average rate of change in altitude.

We know rate of change in altitude = \frac{\text{(Change in altitude)}}{\text{Change in time}}

= (700-400)/(6-2)

= (300)/(4)

= 75 feet per hour

Therefore, 75 feet per hour is the rate of change in altitude.

Answer 2
Answer: Average rate of change =
(change in height during some time) / (length of time for the change).

Change in height = (700 feet - 400 feet) = 300 feet

Time for the change = (6 hours - 2 hours) = 4 hours

Average rate of change = (300 feet) / (4 hours) = 75 feet per hour

How do you find the missing measurement for a parallelogram A=34in, b=17in., h=?

Answers

To find the height of a parallelogram, use the formula below:
Area=Base×Height
A=B×H

A=34in.
B=17in.
H=?
34in.=17in.×?
?=34in.÷17in.
?=34÷17
?=2
?=2in.
The answer is 2in. for the height.
