ian tosses a bone up in the air for his dog, spot. the height, h, in feet, that spot is above the ground at the time t seconds after she jumps for the bone can be represented by the function, h(t) = -16t + 20t. What is spot's average rate of ascent, in feet per second, from the time she jumps into the air to the time she catches the bone at t = 1/2 second?

Which is the graph of the piecewise function f(x)? f(x)=[tex]f(x) = \left \{ {{-x+1, x\leq 0 } \atop {x+1, x\ \textgreater \ 0}} \right.[/tex]

Phyllis and chen are saving money to go to a football game. each friend starts with some money and saves a specific amount each week. phyllis made a graph to show the total she has saved at the end of each week. chen wrote an equation to show the total, y, he has saved at the end of each week, x. y = 15x + 15 compare the amount that each friend has when both friends start saving. select the correct answer from the drop-down menu to complete the statement. phyllis starts with $ and chen starts with $

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
