Given the function g(x) = x2 + 10x + 20, determine the average rate of change of
1 answer:
A function assigns the values. The average rate of change for the given function g(x) is 1.
<h3>What is a Function?</h3>A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.
The average rate of change of a function is given by the formula,
Average rate of change, = [f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a), [a,b]
Where a is the lower limit and b is the upper limit.
Given the upper limit for the function is 0, therefore, the value of a is 0, similarly, the value of b is -9. Thus,
a = 0
g(a) = 0²+10(0)+20 = 20
b = -9
g(b) = (-9)²+10(-9)+20 = 11
The average rate of change for the function g(x), can be written as,
Hence, the average rate of change for the given function g(x) is 1.

<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is: Each x value has one and only one y value.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
A relationship from a set of inputs to a set of outputs where each input has exactly one corresponding output value is said to be a function.
Here, we are given which happens to be a function as no x value is repeated and there is only one corresponding y value to it.
Therefore, option c is the correct answer.
