So

1/x * 3/8 = 5/8

1/x = 5/8 / 3/8

1/x = 5/3

x = 3/5

3/5 as a decimal is 0.6

Find the average velocity of the function over the given interval.

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Average velocity of the function over the given interval

= $log(\frac{7}{4} ) -2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given function y = 3/x -2 ...(i)

The average velocity of the function over the given interval

Average velocity = $\frac{1}{b-a} \int\limits^b_a {(\frac{3}{x} -2)} \, dx$

= $\frac{1}{7-4} \int\limits^7_4 {(\frac{3}{x} -2)} \, dx$

now integrating

= $\frac{1}{3}( \int\limits^7_4 {(\frac{3}{x} )} \, dx-2\int\limits^7_4 {1} \, dx )$

= $\frac{1}{3} (3 (log x) - 2 x )_{4} ^{7}$

= $\frac{1}{3}( (3 (log 7) - 14 )-(3 log 4 -8))$

by using formulas

log a-log b = log(a/b)

on simplification , we get

= $\frac{1}{3}( (3 (log 7) -3 log 4 ) - \frac{1}{3} (6)$

= $log(\frac{7}{4} ) -2$

Average velocity of the function over the given interval

= $log(\frac{7}{4} ) -2$

Answer:

y=-4x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-3)=-4(x-3)

y+3=-4(x-3)

y=-4x+12-3

y=-4x+9

Marion wants to know exactly what her mortgage payments will be each month. What type of mortgage would be her best choice?

mrs_skeptik [129]

The best type of mortgage for her would be a fixed rate mortgage, because it would tell her exactly how much she is paying each month
