e tournament:
Round (x) 1 2 3 4

Compute the average rate of change of f(x) from x = 1 to x = 4 and identify the meaning of that rate.
55; there were 55 fewer wrestlers between rounds 1 and 4
3; there were 3 rounds between rounds 1 and 4
negative fifty five over three; on average, there were 55 fewer players for every 3 rounds

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
round(x)&\boxed{1}&2&3&\boxed{4}\\\\
wrestlers[f(x)]&\boxed{64}&32&18&\boxed{9}
\end{array}
\\\\\\
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)=   \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=1\\
x_2=4
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(4)-f(1)}{4-1}\implies \cfrac{9-64}{4-1}\implies \cfrac{-55}{3}

55 over 3, or 55 wrestlers for every 3 rounds, but the wrestlers value is negative, thus 55 "less" wrestlers for every 3 rounds on average.

Does -2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2) have one,zero or infinite solutions
Andrew [12]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

One solution (z = -1)

Discussion:

-2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2)        =>

-2z -6 -z = -z -4z - 8       =>

-3z -6 = -5z -8                =>  add 6 to both sides

-2z = -5z -2                     => add 5z to both sides

3z = -5z +5z -3               =>

3z = -3                            =>

z = -1

Thank you,

MrB
