"a parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 80 meters per second. what is this rate in feet per second? at this rate, how many feet will the parachutist fall during 20 seconds of free fall? in your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. do not round your answers." i'm suppose to find the rate in ft/s and "distance in 20 seconds" in ft. if anyone can break this down for me, i'd greatly appreciate it. : )

a)264 feet/ second

b)5280 feet during 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 80 meters per second.

Convert the rate in feet per second

We are given that meter is equal to 3.3 feet

So, So, rate in feet per second =

So, parachutist fall in 1 second = 264 feet

Parachutist fall in 20 second =

Hence the parachutist will fall 5280 feet during 20 seconds of free fall

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
