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)
Hint:
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
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?

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.
