The books were bought for $40 - $7 - $3.25 = $29.75

$29.75 divided by 5 books is $5.95, answer A.

40 - 5b - 3.25 = 7
36.75 - 5b = 7
-5b = 7 - 36.75
-5b = - 29.75
b = -29.75 / -5
b = 5.95 <=== 5.95 per book

Find the average rate of change of the function f(x)=(3/-3x-5), on the interval x ∈ [0,3]
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

The average rate of change on the given interval is 9/70

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to find the average rate of change of the function on the given interval

We proceed as follows;

on an interval [a,b] , we can find the average rate of change using the formula;

f(b) - f(a)/b-a

From the question;

a = 0

b = 3

f(0) = -3/5

f(3) = -3/14

Substituting the values, we have;

-3/14-(-3/5)/3-0

= 3/5-3/14/3

= (42-15)/70/3

= 27/70/3

= 27/70 * 1/3 = 9/70

Yuri [45]
Rate is given by:
rate=(distance )/(time)
Martin's rate will be:
(3 1/3)/(1/6)
=(10/3)/(1/6)
=20 meters per hour

Alexia's rate is:
(17 1/2)/(5/6)
=(35/2)/(5/6)
=21 meters per hour

An Impressionist painting increases in value
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

A = $8406.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Average rate r=9\%

Initial cost of painting a = \$1500

Time t = 20\ years

We need to find the final amount of painting at the end of a 20-year.

Solution:

Using Exponential Growth rate formula as:

A = a(1+r)^t  ----------(1)

Where:

A = Final amount

a = Initial amount.

r = Rate as a decimal.

t = Time.

Now, we substitute all given values in equation 1.

A = 1500(1+0.09)^{20}

A = 1500(1.09)^{20}

Substitute 1.09^{20} = 5.60 in above equation.

A = 1500\times 5.60

A = $8406.62

Therefore, value of the  painting at the end of  a 20-year A = $8406.6
