Question 747676: measured in grams and the time in hours. Since population P depends on time t and each input corresponds to exactly one output, we can say that population is a function of time; so P(t) represents the population at time t.
Time (hours), t
Population (grams), P
0
0.15
2.5
0.33
3.5
0.45
4.5
0.58
6
0.65
(a) Find the average rate of change of the population from 0 to 2.5 hours.
(b) Find the average rate of change of the population from 3.5 to 6 hours.
(c) What was happening to the average rate of change as time passes

Question 744266: Can someone please help me with this integral calculus problem?
An oil storage tank ruptures at time t = 0 and oil leaks from the tank at a rate of r(t) = 120^e−0.01(t)liters per minute. How much oil leaks out during the first hour? (Round your answer to the nearest liter.)

Question 741884: I am trying to solve a lesson example in my algebra 2 textbook. I don't understand the graph they used for the solution. Here is the question:
Gillian is planning a green roof that will cover up to 600 square feet. She will use two types of plants: blue lagoon sedum and raspberry red sedum. Each blue lagoon sedum will cover 1.2 square feet. Each raspberry red sedum will cover 2 square feet. Each plant costs $2.50, and Gillian must spend less than $1000. Write the constraints, and graph the feasible region.
x = # of blue lagoon sedums
y = # of raspberry red sedums
The book uses the equations:
x >= 0
y >= 0
1.2x + 2y <= 600
2.50x + 2.50y <= 1000
I solved 1.2x + 2y <= 600 for y. I got y >= -0.66 + 300.
When I solve 2.50x + 2.50y <= 1000 for y I get x >= y + 400 (by replacing y with -0.66 + 300).
The graph in the book shows 300 as the y intercept and 400 as the x intercept. If they are using y = mx + b format, I don't know if I should have solved 2.50x + 2.50y <= 1000 for y or x. Whether I solve for x or y I still come out with a y intercept of 400. What am I doing wrong?

Question 739884: I need to find the answer to and show the steps of these two equations but I have no clue what to do.It's part of a project which is a big portion of my grade, any help would be great. The project is i needed to find the milligrams in a collection of broccoli B and corn C 1000 is the calcium needed per day and 8 is the iron per day needed. I need to be able to show both.
The equations are:
133(b)+6(c)=1000
2.07(b)+0.2(c)=8

Question 730047: I hope this is in the right section, if it isn't I apologize.
The points (1,-4) and (2,-1) are collinear. The points (3,19) and (5,25) are also collinear. What can you say about the lines that cross these points?
I.. really don't even know where to start. Thanks for any help.
