2/3
Divide the numerator and denominator by their gcd which is 5
Answer:
Option D (7, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the general equation of an ellipse has the form:

Where the point (h, k) are the coordinates of the center of the ellipse
In this case the equation of the ellipse is:

Then

So The coordinates of the center of the ellipse are (7, -3)
Answer:
a. -5
b.-5
c.-5
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the average rate of change of a function , we divide the change in the output value by the change in the input value.
Generally, the average rate of change (ARC) on an ecuatios between two points (x1,f(x1)) and (x2,f(x2)) is
- ARC = [f(x2)-f(x1)]/ (x2-x1)
<em>In case a)</em>
f(-1)= -5*(-1)-8=5-8= -3 f(3)= -5*3-8= -23
Then ARC= (-23-(-3))/(3-(-1))=-20/4=-5
<em>In case b)</em>
f(a)= (-5a-8)
f(b)= (-5b-8)
Then ARC= [(-5b-8)-(-5a-8)]/(b-a)= (-5b+5a)/(b-a)= -5(b-a)/(b-a)= -5
<em>In case c)</em>
f(x)= -5x-8
f(x+h)= -5(x+h)-8= -5x-5h-8
then ARC= [(-5x-5h-8)-(-5x-8)]/(x+h-x) =-5h/h= -5
