The average rate of change of the function f( x ) = x² + 7x + 6 at the interval of −4 ≤ x ≤ −1 is 2

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

The average rate of change the function is simply the change in y-values of the two points divided by the change in x-values of the two points.

It is expressed as;

Given the data in the question;

f( x ) = x² + 7x + 6
Interval: −4 ≤ x ≤ −1 ⇒ [-4.-1]

Average rate of change = ( f(-1) - f(-4) ) / ( (-1) - (-4) )

Average rate of change = ( (-1)² + 7(-1) + 6 ) - ( (-4)² + 7(-4) + 6 ) ) / ( (-1) - (-4) )

Average rate of change = ( (1 + -7 + 6 ) - ( 16 - 28 + 6 ) ) / (-1 + 4 )

Average rate of change = ( ( 0 ) - ( -6 ) ) / (-1 + 4 )

Average rate of change = ( 0 + 6 ) / ( 3 )

Average rate of change = 6 / 3

Average rate of change = 2

Therefore, the average rate of change of the function is 2.

Answer:

a) 7 equal sized pieces of 3/8 pounds

7* 3/8 = 21/8

b) 3 equal sized pieces of 7/8 pounds

3* 7/8 = 21/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Martin has 2 5/8 pounds of ground beef.

2 5/8 = 21/8 pounds = 2.625 pounds

Because 21 is divisible by 3 and 7, we can arrange the ground beef in two configurations

a) 7 equal sized pieces of 3/8 pounds

7* 3/8 = 21/8

b) 3 equal sized pieces of 7/8 pounds

3* 7/8 = 21/8

This is lines, functions and systems. Graph the line with slope 1 passing through the point (4, 2).

anzhelika [568]

To graph the line we need two points; we already have one the point (4,2) now we need to find another one; to do this we get the equation of the line given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where m is the slope and (x1,y1) are a point throught the line. Plugging the values given we have:

$\begin{gathered} y-2=1(x-4) \\ y-2=x-4 \\ y=x-4+2 \\ y=x-2 \end{gathered}$

Now we give a value to x and find the corresponding y. If x=0, then:

$y=-2$

hence we have the point (0,-2).

Now that we have two points (0,-2) and (4,2) we graph them on the plane and join them with a straight line, hence the graph is:
