Answer:
Sasuke A 2-3
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe this is how that exponential function would look as a graph (if you need a better pic let me know)
Answer: 0.125 mg per half minute
Step-by-step explanation:
15mg per hour can be written as 15mg/h
To find out how many mg of medication are delivered per half minute you can convert from hour to minutes
There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so you can use the conversion factor (1h/60 min) and multiply the expression by it
15 mg/h (1h/60min) = 0.25 mg/min
But the question is per half minute so you have to multiply and divide the previous expression by 0.5 (To obtain 0.5 min in the denominator, which is half minute)
Then,
(0.25 mg/min ) (0.5/0.5) = 0.125 mg/ 0.5 min (0.125 mg per half minute)
You basically have to find the slope, to find the average rate of change, because finding the slope and finding the average rate of change is basically the same thing.
Here's the formula :

So here, all you'd have to do is simply pick two points, and insert them into this formula. Say you take the points (-2, -2) and (0,-3). You would start from the y-intercept of the second point, and insert them all into the formula.
which would turn into
. And so since you want a good, stable number, and not just a fraction, you would divide -1 and 2, and the average rate of change would be
-0.50.
AVERAGE RATE OF CHANGE :
-0.50
