Question 1072687: 1.Suppose an object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 52 feet per second from a height of 125.The height of the object t seconds after it is thrown is given by h(t)=-16t^2+52t+125. Find the average velocity in the first three seconds after the object is thrown.
The average rate of change of the function over the intervel[a,b] is giving by f(b)-f(a)/b-a
2.A helicopter tour company has found that the number of people that take their tour depends on the price charged per customer. The more the company charges for a tour, the fewer people decide to take the tour.
The function c(x) = 80+5x represents price charged per customer where x is the number of $5 increases they charge over a rate of $80 per person.
The function p(x) = 40−2x represents the number of customers expected for the day, where x is the number of $5 increases they charge over a rate of $80 per person.
What does (p⋅c)(2) mean about the helicopter tour company…
How much can the helicopter tour company expect to take in?
How much will they charge the customer?
3.A supermarket finds that the number of boxes of a new soda drink sold increases each week. In the first week, only 24 boxes of the soda drink were sold. In the next week, 56 boxes of the soda drink were sold and in the third week 88 boxes of the soda drink were sold. The number of boxes of soda drink sold each week represents an arithmetic sequence.
What is the explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence that defines the number of boxes of soda drink sold in week n?
