A) 2/4 b) 6/8 c) 18/20. Is that what you are asking for?
Part A:
f(x) = 5^x
f(x) = 5^0 = 0
f(x) = 5^1 = 5
Use this formula to solve: f(b) - f(a)/b - a
5 - 0 / 1 - 0 = 5/1 = 5
____________________
f(x) = 5^2 = 25
f(x) = 5^3 = 125
125 - 25 / 3 - 2 = 100/1 = 100
Average rate of change:
Section A: 5
Section B: 100
Part B:
Section B is 20 times greater then A
Why?
Because Section B is increasing in the equation. Thus, Section B is of greater value than Section A.

Explanation:
The expressions are garbled. The correct expressions to determine the product of powers are:
1. What is the value of x in the product of powers
?
2. What is the value of y in the product of
?
3. What is the value of n in th product of
?
<h2>Solutions</h2>
<u />
<u>1. What is the value of x in the product of powers </u>
<u> ?</u>
Apply the rule of the <em>product of powers with the same base</em> to the left side of the equality.
The product of two powers with the same base is the base raised to the sum of the exponent:

Now the power on the left side has the same base as the power on the right side, so the exponents are the same:
<u />
<u>2. What is the value of y in the product of </u>
<u> ?</u>
Again, the product of the two powers on the left side is equal to the common base raised to the sum of the exponents:
On the left side, you get:

Then,

3. What is the value of n in th product of
?
Same rule:
Left side:

Left side equal to right side:
