Even though we are using variables, we still know that "difference" means subtraction. So, if the larger is x1 and x2, those variables go first. The smaller, y1 and y2 will go second. So our problem will look like this:
(x1 < x2 ? x2 : x1) - (y1 < y2 ? y1 : y2)
The correct answer for this problem is 6,500 in one month
24a-18a+12a is equal to 18a
hence, divide it by 6a
so you get 3a :)
Average rate of change: r=[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
r=-60→[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)=-60
b=5; f(b)=-213; a=1; f(a)=27
(-213-27)/(5-1)=(-240)/4=-60
Answer: The <span>two points in the table which create an interval with an average rate of change of -60 are:
x f(x)
1 27
5 -213</span>
