Answer:

- 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

here [ a, b ] = [ - 7, - 1 ]

f(b) = f(- 1) = (- 1)² + 2(- 1) - 8 = 1 - 2 - 8 = - 9

f(a) = f(- 7) = (- 7)² + 2(- 7) - 8 = 49 - 14 - 8 = 27

Hence

average rate of change = \frac{-9-27}{-1-(-7)} = \frac{-36}{6} = - 6

Answer:

57 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The height, width, and diagonal of the TV screen form a right triangle.

Use the pythagorean theorem, a² + b² = c², and solve for c, the hypotenuse/diagonal of the TV.

a² + b² = c²

30² + 48² = c²

900 + 2304 = c²

3204 = c²

56.6 = c

Round this to the nearest inch:

56.6

= 57

So, the diagonal of the TV screen is 57 inches

The area of the trapezoid is the product of the height and the average of the two bases: 
<span>30 (25 + 33)/2 = 30 (58)/2 = 30 (29) = 870 square yd. </span>

<span>But we want to exclude the area of the fountain. </span>
<span>Since it's circular its area is π times the square of its radius, or 16π square yd. </span>

<span>So the area of the park, excluding the fountain, is </span>
<span>870 - 16π square yd, </span>
<span>or about 820 square yd.</span>
