Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure you want your functions to appear as perfectly formed as possible so that others can help you. f(x) = 4(2)x should be written with the " ^ " sign to denote exponentation: f(x) = 4(2)^x
f(b) - f(a)
The formula for "average rate of change" is a.r.c. = --------------
b - a
change in function value
This is equivalent to ---------------------------------------
change in x value
For Section A: x changes from 1 to 2 and the function changes from 4(2)^1 to 4(2)^2: 8 to 16. Thus, "change in function value" is 8 for a 1-unit change in x from 1 to 2. Thus, in this Section, the a.r.c. is:
8
------ = 8 units (Section A)
1
Section B: x changes from 3 to 4, a net change of 1 unit: f(x) changes from
4(2)^3 to 4(2)^4, or 32 to 256, a net change of 224 units. Thus, the a.r.c. is
224 units
----------------- = 224 units (Section B)
1 unit
The a.r.c for Section B is 28 times greater than the a.r.c. for Section A.
This change in outcome is so great because the function f(x) is an exponential function; as x increases in unit steps, the function increases much faster (we say "exponentially").
-19 to -15 would be a positive 4 difference
19 to 15 = 4 this would be a -4 difference
3 to 7 is a positive 4 difference
-3 to 7 is a difference of 10
so there is 1 with a -4 difference
answer is B.
Answer:
distance=rate*time
2520=(r)(3)+(r+90)(3) (they both travel for 3 hours)
2520=3r+3r+270
2520-270=6r
2250=6r
r=2250/6
r=375 mph
r+90=375+90=465 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is C, 25% increase. To find the increase, subtract starting value (780) from the final value (975). It equals out to be 195. Divide 195 by the starting value which turns out to be 0.25. Then, multiply 0.25 by 100 which equals out to be 25.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
7 + 9 = 16
9 - 7 = 2
The larger number is 9
Hope that helps!
