Question

What is a peregrine falcon's maximum speed while diving to catch prey, in feet per second? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number 1 mile = 5280 feet)

hintHint:

Hint:
  • Use 1 mile = 5280feet and 1 hour = 3600sec  to solve this question.

The correct answer is: 293 feet / sec


    Explanation:
    • We have given the maximum speed of peregrine falcon is 200 miles per hour
    • We have to find this maximum speed in feet per sec.
    Step 1 of 1:
    We know that
    1mile = 5280feet
    And 1hour = 3600sec
    So,
    = 200mile / hour
    equals fraction numerator 200 cross times 5280 text  feet  end text over denominator 3600 sec end fraction
    equals 293.33 feet divided by sec
    Hence, Rounding to the nearest whole number 293 feet/sec .

    Keith modeled the growth over several hundred years of a tree population by estimating the number of the trees' pollen grains per square centimeter that were deposited each year within layers of a lake's sediment. He estimated there were 310 pollen grains per square centimeter the first year the grains were deposited, with a 1%  annual increase in the number of grains per square centimeter thereafter. Which of the following functions models p(t), the number of pollen grains per square centimeter t years after the first year the grains were deposited?

    x minus 2 y equals negative 3
    x plus y equals 21
    According to the system of equations above, what is the value of X ?

    Note:
    Here we find the value of y from equation (1) and use it in equation (2).
    We could do it the other way and receive the same answer, that is, if we find the value of y from equation (2) and use it in equation (1) to find x, we get the same value of x as found in the solution above.
    Students are encouraged to try this method too.
