Answer:

1970.5 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Vehicle sales in 2009 = 10,002 thousand

Vehicle sales in 2013 = 17,884 thousand

Required

Determine the average rate of change;

From the given parameters, it can be seen that the number of vehicles is a function of year

Let x represent the years and y represent the number of vehicles;

Such that;

x_1 = 2009;\ y_1 = 10,002

x_2 = 2013;\ y_2 = 17,884

The rate of change is calculate as follows;

m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}

m = \frac{10002 - 17884}{2009 - 2013}

m = \frac{-7882}{-4}

m = \frac{-7882}{-4}

m = 1970.5

Hence, the average rate of change is 1970.5 thousand

A shoe store charges a retail price of $39 for a certain type of sneaker. This retail price is 30% more than the amount it costs
Ostrovityanka [42]
I was a little confused myself but if it is asking for the cost of the sneakers after the 20% off from the amount of money the store had to pay, it would be D, $21.84. The way to do this would be to find the cost of the sneakers when the store bought them. You multiply the percentage in decimal form with the cost of the sneakers at the price the store was selling it: 0.3*39 = 11.7. Then, to get the price the store bought them at, you would subtract that price from $39 to get $27.30. Finally, you apply the 20% discount to 27.30 by multiplying 0.2 to it and subtracting that price from 27.30. Then your answer will be $21.84. However, if the problem was asking for the cost of sneakers after the 20% off from the price the store was selling it, it would be A, $31.20. You would have to multiply the 20% discount straight to the price the store is selling the sneakers, $39. Then subtract that price from $39 to get $31.20.

.   Multiply (x + 3)(x – 3).
konstantin123 [22]
X × x = x^2
x × -3 = -3x
3 × x = 3x
3 × -3 = -9

x^2 + 3x - 3x - 9
So I would agree with C because the -3x and the 3x cancel each other out. I hope this helps!
