1 day = 24 hours
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
60 seconds x 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds per hour
3,600 seconds per hour x 24 hours = 86,400 seconds per day.
The light flashes 5 times every 10 seconds:
5 flashes / 10 seconds = 1 flash every 2 seconds
86,400 seconds / 2 seconds = 43,200 flashes per day.
Answer:
The average rate of change of the function from x=1 to x=2 will be: 10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function

at x₁ = 1,
f(x₁) = f(1) = -14/(1)² = -14/1 = -14
at x₂ = 2,
f(x₂) = f(2) = -14/(2)² = -14/(4) = -3.5
Using the formula to determine the average rate of change at which the total cost increases will be:
Average rate of change = [f(x₂) - f(x₁)] / [ x₂ - x₁]
= [-3.5 - (-14)] / [2 - 1]
= [-3.5 + 14] / [1]
= 10.5 / 1
= 10.5
Therefore, the average rate of change of the function from x=1 to x=2 will be: 10.5
It'll be 7 because 3/4 is greater than 1/2 so you round it up.
