Trick question. See these negative signs? The left number is -9.375, and the right number is -0.8068181818181818... Notice that even though the right number looks like a smaller answer, it is closer to 0 on a number line, because it is negative. -71/88 is the correct answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure you want your functions to appear as perfectly formed as possible so that others can help you. f(x) = 4(2)x should be written with the " ^ " sign to denote exponentation: f(x) = 4(2)^x
f(b) - f(a)
The formula for "average rate of change" is a.r.c. = --------------
b - a
change in function value
This is equivalent to ---------------------------------------
change in x value
For Section A: x changes from 1 to 2 and the function changes from 4(2)^1 to 4(2)^2: 8 to 16. Thus, "change in function value" is 8 for a 1-unit change in x from 1 to 2. Thus, in this Section, the a.r.c. is:
8
------ = 8 units (Section A)
1
Section B: x changes from 3 to 4, a net change of 1 unit: f(x) changes from
4(2)^3 to 4(2)^4, or 32 to 256, a net change of 224 units. Thus, the a.r.c. is
224 units
----------------- = 224 units (Section B)
1 unit
The a.r.c for Section B is 28 times greater than the a.r.c. for Section A.
This change in outcome is so great because the function f(x) is an exponential function; as x increases in unit steps, the function increases much faster (we say "exponentially").
Answer:44
Step-by-step explanation:
You have invested 1200 dollars in your mutual fund and now gained 1333 dollars. First let's solve how much money added to your investment.
=> 1333 - 1200 = 133 dollars was added to your account
=> 133 / 1200 = 0.11
Next, lets convert this to decimal value.
=> 0.11 * 100% = 11% was added to you investment.
You put the whole number over 1 then multiply so both fractions have the same denominator.
Example:
2- 1/2
2/1 -1/2
4/2 - 1/2 = 3/2 = 1 1/2
I’m not sure if this helped but I hope it did
