3 0

point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-0 = -3(x--5)

y = -3 (x+5)

in slope intercept form distribute

y =-3x-15

At a pumpkin patch, if Armando guesses the weight of his pumpkin within 0.3 pounds, he gets to take the pumpkin home for free. I

Reil [10]

Answer: last option

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the weight of his pumpkin 4.9 pounds and that, if he guesses its weight within 0.3 pounds, he will get the pumpkin for free.

Then, to find the minimum weight he can guess in order to get his pumpkin for free, it's necessary to write the expression:

$x-0.3=4.9$

Rewriting it:

$x-4.9=0.3$

To find the maximum weight he can guess in order to get his pumpkin for free, it's necessary to write the expression:

$x+0.3=4.9$

Rewriting it:

$x-4.9=-0.3$

Calculate the average rate of change of f(x) = 1 x - x2 - 2 for 3 ≤ x ≤ 6. A) -163 18 B) -18 163 C) 163 18 D) 18 163

larisa86 [58]

To solve this we are going to use the average rate of change formula: $A(x)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$
where
$A(x)$ is the average rate of change of the function
$f(a)$ is the position function evaluated at $a$
$f(b)$ is the position function evaluated at $b$
$a$ is the first point in the interval
$b$ is the second point in the interval

We can infer for our problem that the first point is 3 and the second point is 6, so $a=3$ and $b=6$ . Lets replace those values in our formula:
$A(x)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$
$A(x)= \frac{f(6)-f(3)}{6-3}$
$A(x)= \frac{6-6^2-2-(3-3^2-2)}{3}$
$A(x)= \frac{-32-(-8)}{3}$
$A(x)= \frac{-32+8}{3}$
$A(x)= \frac{-24}{3}$
$A(x)=-8$

We can conclude that the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 1 x - x2 - 2 for 3 ≤ x ≤ 6 is -8
