The answer is 11 because if you look at the chart. You can see everything can be divided by 8 and 88 divided by 8 is 11.
Using it's concept, the average rate of change of the function over the interval 10 < x < 22 is given by:

<h3>What is the average rate of change of a function over an interval?</h3>
It is given by the change in the <u>output divided by the change in input</u>.
Over the interval 10 < x < 22, the outputs are f(10) and f(22), hence the rate of change is given by:

Rates like $ per channel is a slope, "m". The added fee is a constant so it's the intercept "b".
y = mx + b
So for the first problem (9)
(a)
y = total cost in dollars
x = number of premium channels
y = 16x + 44
(b) when x = 3 channels
y = 16(3) + 44
y = 92 $
the second problem (10)
(a) every 4 years the tree grows by 12-9=3 ft
So the unit rate or slope will be 3 ft per 4 yrs, (3/4). You can see this also by solving for slope "m" using the given points (4,9) and (8,12).
x = number of years
y = height of tree in ft
y = (3/4)x + b
use one of the points to find the y-intercept "b".
9 = (3/4)(4) + b
9 = 3 + b
9 - 3 = b
6 = b
y = (3/4)x + 6
(b) when x = 16
y = (3/4)(16) + 6
y = 12 + 6
y = 18 ft
The form is y=mx+b
3x=-2y+4 (add 2y)
3x+2y=4 (subtract 3x)
2y=-3x+4 (divide by 2)
y= -2/3x+2
D. It is not a function because there are multiple outputs for one input.
