The average rate of change of the function in the given interval -3 ≤ x ≤-1 is 10.

<h3>What is the average rate of change?</h3>

The average Rate of Change of the function f(x) can be calculated as;

f(x) = \dfrac{f(b) - f(a)}{b-a}

Interval -3 ≤ x ≤-1

a = -3, b = -1

f(a) = f(-3) = -20

f(b) = f(-1) = 0

Step 2: Find Average

f(x) = \dfrac{f(b) - f(a)}{b-a}\\\\\\f(x) = \dfrac{f(-1) - f(-3)}{-1-(-3)}\\\\\\f(x) = \dfrac{0 - (-20)}{2}\\\\f(x) = 10

Therefore, the average rate of change of the function in the given interval -3 ≤ x ≤-1 is 10.

Use Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum values of
marusya05 [52]

The Lagrangian is

L(x,y,\lambda)=x+8y+\lambda(x^2+y^2-4)

It has critical points where the first order derivatives vanish:

L_x=1+2\lambda x=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac1{2x}

L_y=8+2\lambda y=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac4y

L_\lambda=x^2+y^2-4=0

From the first two equations we get

-\dfrac1{2x}=-\dfrac4y\implies y=8x

Then

x^2+y^2=65x^2=4\implies x=\pm\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}}\implies y=\pm\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}

At these critical points, we have

f\left(\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}},\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}\right)=2\sqrt{65}\approx16.125 (maximum)

f\left(-\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}},-\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}\right)=-2\sqrt{65}\approx-16.125 (minimum)

George's page contains twice as many type words as Bill's paid and Bill's page contains 50 fewer words and Charlie's page. If ea
defon
For this, we use simultaneous equations. Let George's page be g, Charlie's be c and Bill's page be b.

First, <span>George's page contains twice as many type words as Bill's.

Thus, g = 2b.

</span><span>Second, Bill's page contains 50 fewer words than Charlie's page.

Thus, b = c - 50.

</span>If each person can type 60 words per minute, after one minute (i.e. when 60 more words have been typed) <span>the difference between twice the number of words on bills page and the number of words on Charlie's page is 210.

We can express that as 2b - c = 210.

Now we need to find b, since it represents Bill's page.

We can substitute b for (c - 50) since b = c - 50, into the equation 2b - c = 210. This makes it 2(c - 50) - c = 210.

We can expand this to 2c - 100 - c = 210.

We can simplify this to c - 100 = 210.

Add 100 to both sides.

c - 100 + 100 = 210 + 100

Then simplify: c = 210 + 100 = 310.

Now that we know c, we can use the first equation to find b.

b = c - 50 = 310 - 50 = 260.

260 is your answer. I don't know where George comes into it. Maybe it's a red herring!</span>

A light shines from the top of a pole 50ft high. a ball is dropped from the same height from a point 30 ft away from the light.
belka [17]
The speed of the ball is 
ds/dt = 32t
At t =1/2 s
ds/dt = 16 ft/s
The distance from the ground
50 - 16(1/2)^2 = 46 ft
The triangles formed are similar
50/46 = (30 + x)/x
x = 345 ft

50 / (50 - s) = (30 + x)/x
Taking the derivative and substituing
ds/dt = 16
and
Solve for dx/dt
