Answer:
C) They are the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The function f(x) has points as per graph:</u>
<u>So the points are:</u>
<u>Rate of change for f(x):</u>
<u>The function g(x) has points:</u>
- g(1) = -1² + 10 = 9
- g(3) = -3² + 10 = 1
<u>So the points are:</u>
<u>Rate of change for f(x):</u>
As we see both functions have same rate of change over the interval [1, 3]
<u>The answer choice is: </u>C) They are the same
13r+23r=-2-1
36r=-3
r=-3/36
r=-1/12
The answer is C because you do PEMDAS and then add the 5 from the other side
