What they want here is the slope of the line through (1,7) and (-3,9)

Using the slope formula, we get...

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (9-7)/(-3-(-1))
<span>m = (9-7)/(-3+1)</span>
m = 2/(-2)
m = -1

So the answer must be choice D) -1

If you draw a line through these two points, the line will slope downward (move from left to right). Each time you go down 1, you go to the right 1.

Answer:

The correct option is 4. The average rate of change from x = −1 to x = −3 is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the graph of parabola going through (-1,7) and (-3,9).

It means the value of at x=-1 is 7.

f(-1)=7

The value of at x=-3 is 9.

f(-3)=9

The slope of a function f(x) for the interval [a,b] is

m=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

We have to find the average rate of change from x = −1 to x = −3. Here a=-1 and b=-3. So the average rate of change from x = −1 to x = −3 is

m=\frac{f(-3)-f(-1)}{-3-(-1)}

m=\frac{9-7}{-3+1}

m=\frac{2}{-2}

m=-1

The average rate of change from x = −1 to x = −3 is -1. Therefore the correct option is 4.

A rectangle has a perimeter of 30 ft. Find a function that models its area A in terms of the length x of one of its sides. What
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other side of the rectangle be y. The perimeter of the rectangle is expressed as P = 2(x+y)

Given P = 30ft, on substituting P = 30 into the expression;

30 = 2(x+y)

x+y = 15

y = 15-x

Also since the area of the rectangle is xy;

A = xy

Substitute y = 15-x into the area;

A = x(15-x)

A = 15x-x²

The function that models its area A in terms of the length x of one of its sides is A = 15x-x²

The side of length x yields the greatest area when dA/dx = 0

dA/dx = 15-2x

15-2x = 0

-2x = -15

x = -15/-2

x = 7.5 ft

Hence the side length, x that yields the greatest area is 7.5ft.

Since y = 15-x

y = 15-7.5

y = 7.5

Area of the rectangle = 7.5*7.5

Area of the rectangle = 56.25ft²

Katena32 [7]

Answer: the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

36% of US population has never been married

32% are divorced

27% are married

5% are widowed

Taking a simple random sample of individuals to test this claim;

we need expected count in each cell to be at least 5, here the smallest proportion is 5% = 0.05

so we only need to satisfy condition for its expected count;

n × 0.05 ≥ 5

n = 5 / 0.05 = 100

Therefore the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100
