In still water it takes him 3 hours to travel 30 miles.
That is 10 m/h
Going back it took him 6 hours which means he travelled at 5 m/h.
To slow him done by 5 m/h the current had to flow at 5 m/h

Hope this helps :)

For the graphed exponential equation, calculate the average rate of change from x = −3 to x = 0.

iragen [17]

Answer:

$-\frac{7}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we are using the average rate of change formula:

$m=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

where

$m$ is the average rate of change

$a$ is the first point

$b$ is the second point

$f(a)$ is the function evaluated at the first point

$f(b)$ is the function evaluated at the second point

We want to know the average rate of change of the function $f(x)=0.5^x-6$ form x = -3 to x = 0, so our first point is -3 and our second point is 0. In other words, $a=-3$ and $b=0$ .
