Scientific notation is shorthand for writing really big or really small numbers. Without it we could not do certain calculations because there would be just too many digits and it would be tedious.

For example:
writing out the numbers in standard form..
1,440,000,000 ÷ 0.0000012 = ???
= 1,200,000,000,000,000

Scientific notation...
144×10^7 ÷ 12×10^-7 = 12×10^14

What is the rate of change of y with respect to x for this function?​
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Given the function: y=f(x) = 3x+2

when x=-2 at the beginning of the interval [-2, 5],

then;

y = 3x+2 begins at

y= 3(-2)+2 = -6+2= -4.

and

when x=5 at the end of the interval [-2, 5],

y = 3x+2 ends up at

y= 3(5)+2 = 15+2= 17.

So,

y has changed -4 to 17, which is a change of 17-(-4)= 17+4 = 21

and x has changed from -2 to 5, which is a change of 5-(-2)=5+2=7

So, the average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval

[-2, 5] is given by ;

=

Therefore, the average rate of change y with respect to x over the interval is, 3
