PLEASE HELP ME 9. A water pail in your backyard has a small hole in it. You notice that it has drained a total of 3.5 liters in 4 days. What is the average change in water volume each day?

10. The price of one share of ABC Company declined a total of $45.75 in 5 days. What was the average change in the price of one share per day?

11. To avoid a storm, a passenger-jet pilot descended 0.44 miles in 0.8 minutes. What was the plane’s average change of altitude per minute?

9-11 below

Step-by-step explanation:

9. Well, we're given that the hole drains color(red)(3.5color(white)(l)"L" in color(green)(4color(white)(l)"d", so we can write the rate as

(color(red)(3.5color(white)(l)"L"))/(color(green)(4color(white)(l)"d"))

Now we perform this division, and afterward the denominator will be 1 and thus it will tell us the number of liters drained per day:

(color(red)(3.5color(white)(l)"L"))/(color(green)(4color(white)(l)"d")) = color(blue)(ulbar(|stackrel(" ")(" "(0.875color(white)(l)"L")/(1color(white)(l)"d")" ")|)

Therefore, color(blue)(0.875color(white)(l)"liters" are drained every day on average.

9.25

decrease per day

Explanation:

We can divide the total price decrease by the number of days it took to reach that decrease to find the average decrease per day:

9.25

decrease per day

11. The average change of altitude per minute would simply be the ratio of distance descended over time. That is:

average change of altitude = distance / time

average change of altitude = 0.44 mile / 0.8 minutes

average change of altitude = 0.55 mile / minute
