Answer:

The smaller number is 22

The larger number is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

L + S = 52

L = S + 8

Set both equations equal to L.

S + 8 = -S + 52

+S +S

2S + 8 = 52

- 8 - 8

2S = 44

S = 22

To find the larger number, plug 22 in as S into the equations.

L = 30

What is the average rate of change of f(x) from x = -2 to x= 2?

Serga [27]

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of the f(x) values divided by the difference in the corresponding x values.

That would be (f(2) - f(-2)) / (2 - (-2))

Between x=2 and x=3, which function has a greater average rate of change than f(x)=2^x has?

maxonik [38]

Answer: f(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the formula for the rate of change by taking the derivative of 2^x. Let f(x) equal some hypothetical y-value, then take the natural log of both sides.

$y=2^x\\\ln(y)=x \ln(2)$

Implicitly differentiate the left side and take the derivative of the right side

$\frac{y'}{y} =\ln(2)$

Multiply both sides by 'y' which was defined as 2^x

$y'=\ln(2)*2^x$

Plug in x = 2 and x = 3 to see which slope is larger

$y'=\ln(2)*2^2=4\ln(2)\\y'=\ln(2)*2^3=8\ln(2)$
