At the beginning of? 2007, a? start-up company had already received 60 comma 00060,000 hits at its website. at the beginning of? 2009, that number had climbed to 430 comma 000430,000. calculate the rate at which the number of hits is increasing.

 The rate at which the number of hits is increasing is 185,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning of 2007,

Number of hits at its website the company has received = 60000

At the beginning of 2009,

Number of hits at its website the company has received = 430000

We need to find the rate at which the number of hits is increasing.

For this, we will find "Slope " with coordinates (2007,60000) and (2009,430000).

Slope is given by

Hence, The rate at which the number of hits is increasing is 185,000.

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
