Step-by-step explanation:

x = father's age now

y = son's age now

x = 2y + 10

x - 20 = 5(y - 20) = 5y - 100

using the first in the second equation :

2y + 10 - 20 = 5y - 100

-10 = 3y - 100

90 = 3y

y = 30

x = 2y + 10 = 2×30 + 10 = 60 + 10 = 70

the father is now 70 years old, the son now 30 years old.

What is the average rate of change for the function f(x)=3x^2 -5 on the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ −1 ?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = -1 and a = -3

The average rate of change = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

f(b) = f(-1) = 3(-1)^2 - 5 = 3 - 5 = -2

f(a) = f(-3) = 3(-3)^2 - 5 =27 - 5 = 22

f(b) - f(a) = -2 - 22 = -24

b - a = -1 + 3 = 2

\frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} = -24/2 = -12
