Solve the equation by replacing x with -7 and then -1.
Then subtract the two to find the difference and divide that by the difference between -7 and -1.
f(-7) = -7^2 + 2(-7) -8 = 49 -14 -8 = 27
f(-1) = -1^2 + 2(-1) -8 = 1 -2 - 8 = -9
Difference between 27 and -9 = -36
Difference between -1 and -7 = -6
Rate of change = -36 /-6 = 6

Answer:
97.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
For a score below 218 :
P(x < 218)
Standard deviation = 20 ; mean = 178
Obtian the standardized score (Zscore) :
Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation
Z = (218 - 178) / 20 = 40 / 20 = 2
P(x < Z) = P(Z < 2) = 0.97725 (Z probability calculator)
0.97725 * 100 = 97.725 = 97.7%
Answer:
1. 15x^7y^2 + 4x^3 => x^3(15x^4y^2 + 4)
2. 15x^7y^2 + 3x => 3x(5x^6y^2 + 1)
3. 15x^7y^2 + 6xy => 3xy(5x^6y + 2)
4. 15x^7 + 10y^2 => 5(3x^7 + 2y^2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain the answer to the question, first let us factorise each expression. This is illustrated below:
1. 15x^7y^2 + 4x^3
Common factor is x^3, therefore the expression is written as:
x^3(15x^4y^2 + 4)
2. 15x^7y^2 + 3x
Common factor is 3x, therefore the expression is written as:
3x(5x^6y^2 + 1)
3. 15x^7y^2 + 6xy
Common factor is 3xy, therefore the expression is written as:
3xy(5x^6y + 2)
4. 15x^7 + 10y^2
Common factor is 5, therefore the expression can be written as:
5(3x^7 + 2y^2)
