\bf slope = m = \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{ f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{ x_2 - x_1}\impliedby

-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)= 20(14)^x  \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=1\\
x_2=2
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(2)-f(1)}{2-1}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[20(14)^2]~~-~~[20(14)^1]}{1}\implies \cfrac{20\cdot 196~~-~~20\cdot 14}{1}

\cfrac{3920~~-~~280}{1}\implies \cfrac{3640}{1}\implies 3640

Answer:

Average rate of change(A(x)) of f(x) over a interval [a,b] is given by:

A(x) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Given the function:

f(x) = 20 \cdot(\frac{1}{4})^x

We have to find the average rate of change from x = 1 to x= 2

At x = 1

then;

f(x) = 20 \cdot(\frac{1}{4})^1 = 5

At x = 2

then;

f(x) = 20 \cdot(\frac{1}{4})^2=20 \cdot \frac{1}{16} = 1.25

Substitute these in above formula we have;

A(x) = \frac{f(2)-f(1)}{2-1}

⇒A(x) = \frac{1.25-5}{1}=-3.75

therefore, average rate of change of the function f(x) from x = 1 to x = 2 is, -3.75

A school goes through 10 gallons of milk in 3 days.
Akimi4 [234]
G = gallons     d = days
10g = 3d
?g = 1d
1g = ?d
-------------
for gallons in a day, divide 10g = 3d by 3
d = 10/3 gallons
3 and 1/3 gallons in a day
---------------
for days per gallon, divide 10g = 3d by 10
g = 3/10 days
1 gallon lasts 3/10 of a day

What is 5/10+1/5 to this problem please help me
NeX [460]
Let's look at it like this:
5/10+1/5 = (5/10) + (1/5)
5/10 = 0,5
1/5 = 0,2
so it's 5/10 + 1/5 = (5/10) + (1/5) = 0,5 + 0,2 = <u>0,7 </u>
