Explain the difference between the average rate of change of y as x changes from a to b, and the instantaneous rate of change of

y at x=a.
A. The average rate of change of y as x changes from a to b can be found using the formula ​, where y​f(x). The instantaneous rate of change of y at xa is found by taking the limit as b approaches a of the stated formula.
B. The average rate of change of y as x changes from a to b can be found by using the formula ​, where y​f(x). The instantaneous rate of change of y at xa is found by taking the limit as b approaches a of the stated formula.
C. The instantaneous rate of change of y at xa can be found by using the formula ​, where y​f(x). The average rate of change of y as x changes from a to b is found by taking the limit as b approaches a of the stated formula.
D. The instantaneous rate of change of y at xa can be found using the formula ​, where y​f(x). The average rate of change of y as x changes from a to b is found by taking the limit as b approaches a of the stated formula.

The given options are not clear enough, so i have attached the full question with the correct options.

Answer:

Option A:

Average rate of change=[f(b) - f(a)]/(b-a)

Instantaneous rate of change of y at x = a is found by finding the limit as "b" approaches "a"

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of a function f(x) on an interval [a, b] is defined as the slope of the secant line, which is calculated by the formula;

[f(b) - f(a)]/(b - a)

While the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x = a is defined as the slope of the tangent line, which is calculated by finding the limit as "b" approaches "a". This is written as; f'(a) .

Looking at the options, the correct answer is option A.

In square ABCD, AC = 6x + 10, and BD = 10x + 2. What is the length of AC?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

B) 22

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = BD

6x+10 = 10x+2

simplify:

subtract 6x and 2 from both sides:

4x = 8

x = 2

then:

AC = 6(2)+10 = 22

Solve by Elimination:<br> 8x + 6y = -5<br> 10x + 6y= -13
jonny [76]

Answer:

x= -4 and y= 27/6

Step-by-step explanation:

-(8x + 6y = -5) which converts to -8x -6y = 5

10x + 6y = -13

simplify from there

-8x + 10x = 2x ; -6y + 6y = 0 ; 5 - 13 = -8

soo, now you have

2x = -8

x = -4

then, plug in to find y

8(-4) + 6y = -5

-32 + 6y = -5   add 32 on both sides

6y = 27    divide both sides by 6

y= 27/6 or 4.5

Nima uses 2/3 cup peanuts, 1/2 cup cashews, 3/4 cups pecans, and some raisinsin a recipe that makes 2 1/4 cups of trail mix. How
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

8/27 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Nima uses 2/3 cups of peanuts to make a recipe of 2 1/4 = 9/4 cups of trail mix. If we want to find how many cups of peanuts are there per cup of trail mix, we can do a rule of three:

If 9/4 cups of trail mix need 2/3 cups of peanuts, 1 cup of trail mix need X cups of peanuts:

9/4 cups of trail mix -> 2/3 cups of peanuts

1 cup of trail mix -> X cups of peanuts

9/4 / 1 = 2/3 / X

9/4 = 2/(3*X)

3*X*9 = 4*2

27*X = 8

X = 8/27 cups

Jim spins a spinner with colors red, blue, yellow, purple, green, and orange. Jim also flips a coin. What is the probability tha
S_A_V [24]
Probability=number of specific outcomes/total possible outcomes

And the probability of two events happening at the same time is P(1)*P(2), or the product of the probabilities of each event...

In this case:

P(primary color)=3/6=1/2

P(head)=1/2

P(primary and head)=(1/2)(1/2)=1/4
