What is the average rate of change in f(x) over the interval [4,13]?
mestny [16]

we know that

Average Rate of Change. is the change in the y-value divided by the change in the x-value for two distinct points on the graph

So

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

in this problem

a=4\\ b=13\\ f(a)=f(4)=8\\ f(b)=f(13)=11

substitute the values in the formula above

A=\frac{(11-8)}{(13-4)} \\ \\ A=\frac{3}{9}

Divide by 3 both numerator and denominator

A=\frac{1}{3}

therefore

the answer is

\frac{1}{3}

Why do whole numbers with an exponent get bigger while fractions with an exponent get smaller.
ohaa [14]

Raising a whole number to a power means: 

             Take (a number of things) a number of times, and then possibly
             take that big number of things a number of times again.

Raising a fraction to an exponent means: 

             Take a piece of (a piece of one thing), and then possibly
              take just a piece of that smaller piece.

Ms.Malone received $3.40 in change. What is the amount as a fraction in simplest terms.
sammy [17]
To write 3.40 as a fraction you have to write 3.40 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.
3.40 = 3.40/1 = 34/10

And finally we have:
3.40 as a fraction equals 34/10 simplified we get: 3 2/5

ILL MARK AS BRAINLIST IF U GET IT RIGHT it’s khan
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

given that x and y are proportional, they can be expressed as y = rx, where r is the proportionality constant. Thus, we can solve for r by doing y/x in any given point.

\frac{8}{1.6} = \frac{15}{3}  = \frac{22}{4.4} = 5
