Answer: - 1/2 = - 0.5


Explanation:


1. Make the sequence clear. These are the given points (x,y):

  • (-1, 4)
  • (1, 3)
  • (3, 2)
  • (5, 1)

2. The average rate of change only takes into account the last and the first pairs of your intervals, those are (5, 1) and (-1, 4).

Average rate of change = [change in y] / [change in x] = [1 - 4] / [5 - (-1) ] =

  = - 3 / 6 = - 1/2 = - 0.5  ← answer


The averate ratre of change is the slope of the line that joins the first and last points. The fact that the result is negative means that there was a net decrease of the values.

Shalnov [3]
Beyonce gets 9 cans worth, Michelle drinks 10 cans worth of soft drink and kelly receives 5 cans worth.

Dozen = 12 so 2 dozens = 12x2=24 

3/8 = 9/24 because 8x3=24 & 3x3=9
5/12 =10/24 because 12x2=24 & 5x2=10
5/24 is fine because it is already out of 24

PLS HELP ME WITH 42!! (SHOW WORKKK!!!) + LOTS OF POINTS!!
spayn [35]
We can represent the cost of the notebooks with by saying 0.75n, and the cost of the pens by saying 0.55p.

0.75n+0.55p will be the total cost before tax.  Now, we need to add on tax.  Tax will be 0.0625 times the total amount, so we can represent the cost by saying 

(0.75n+0.55p) + 0.0625(0.75n+0.55p), so the answer is B.

What is the value of log16 4?
stepan [7]
1 ) log ( 16 ) 4 = 1/2
Answer: B ) 1/2
2 ) 125 ^( 9 x - 2 ) = 150
9 x - 2 = log ( 125 ) 150
9 x - 2 = 1.038
9 x = 1.038 + 2
9 x = 3.038
x = 3.038 : 9
x = 0.3375
Answer: C ) 0.3375
3 ) log ( 3 x + 2 ) = 3
3 x + 2 = 10^3
3 x + 2 = 1000
3 x = 1000 - 2
3 x = 998
x = 998 / 3
Answer: B ) 998 / 3
