1 answer:

7 0

For a linear function, the instantaneous rate of change is everywhere equal to the slope. Thus the rate of change of the function h(x)=2x on the interval 2≤x≤4
The rate of change of the function given will equal to its slope, thus;
slope,m=(y-1-y)/(x_1-x)
=(2*4-2*2)/(4-2)
=(8-4)/2
=4/2
=2

the answer is 2

It's a y=mx+b equation, Carries' would be y=1/2 x - 125 (total profit is equal to the cupcake amount, each sold for 50 cents - the startup cost of 125). Juanita's would be y=2.25x-125. Comparing Carries' to Juanita's sales would mean that you would multiply x by 3 (no less than 3 times the ..). I may elaborate further on comparing in the comment section

I need to find side x in its simplest radical form using the special right triangles method

Answer:

\sqrt{6}

Explanation:

From the given diagram,

Hypotenuse sde = x

Opposite side = \sqrt{3}

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Sintheta = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 45 = \sqrt{3}/x

x = \sqrt{3}/sin45

$\begin{gathered} x\text{ =}\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{\sin 45} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}}} \\ x\text{ = }\sqrt[]{3^{}}\cdot\sqrt[]{2} \\ x\text{ =}\sqrt[]{6} \end{gathered}$

Hence the value of x is \sqrt{6}
