None of the offered choices is correct.
f(3) = 0.02·2³ = 0.02·8 = 0.16
f(8) = 0.02·2⁸ = 0.02·256 = 5.12
Then the average rate of change is
... (f(8) - f(3))/(8 - 3) = (5.12 -0.16)/5 = 4.96/5 = 0.992
The correct answer is y=-3x-10
when a line is parallel to another line that means the slip of the lines are going to be the same and since the y-intercept of the other line was given to you, you would just put them together in one equation.
Volumeprism=volumecube times number of cubes
vprism/vcube=number of cubes
vprism=12*5*4.25=255
vcube=side^3=(1/4)^3=1/64
vprism/vcube=255/(1/64)=255*64=16320 cubes
The rate of change is 1.5
Leonard method is likely to to give an accurate estimate of the mean since his sample was randomly selected from campers at his camp.
hope this helped
