Answer: (B) 3 times as fast

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

rate of change is the "slope" between the given interval.

f(x) = 125(.9)ˣ

f(1) = 125(.9)¹

    = 112.5

f(5) = 125(.9)⁵

     = 73.8

\dfrac{f(5) - f(1)}{5 - 1} = \dfrac{73.8-112.5}{5-1} = -\dfrac{38.7}{4} = -9.675

********************

f(11) = 125(.9)¹¹

       = 39.2

f(15) = 125(.9)¹⁵

       = 25.7

\dfrac{f(15) - f(11)}{15 - 11} = \dfrac{39.2-25.7}{15-11} = -\dfrac{13.5}{4} = -3.375

********************

The rate of change from years 1 to 5 is approximately 3 times the rate of change from years 11 to 15.

I would have to say A - Mean; because the data is skewed and there are outliers.

This is because the median of this would not be accurate for the number of kids that read no books and the random three kids that read ten. Mean, however, would find the true median within the plot and utilize and take into account the outliers and how skewed the data is.

Hope this helps!

What is the discount and sale price of a $300 item that has been discounted 10%?
maxonik [38]

Answer: The discount is $30, making the sale price $270.

Step-by-step explanation: Take your initial value times the percent of your discount to find the discount amount: in this case, it is 300 * .10 = 30. Then you can subtract that value from your initial value, 300-30=270 to get the sale price.
