Average rate of change is just the slope between the 2 points
we can do this the long way or the smart way
long way, find the 2 points and find the slope between them
when x=-5, f(-5)=-2(-5)+1=10+1=11
when x=1, f(1)=-2(1)+1=-2+1=-1
so the points are (-5,11) and (1,-1)
the slope between them is (-1-11)/(1-(-5))=(-12)/(1+5)=-12/6=-2
the answer is B, -2
smart way
recognize that that is a linear equation and the slope between any 2 points will be the m in y=mx+b
f(x)=-2x+1
the slope is -2
the average rate of change is -2
answer is B. -2
Answer: fifty four degrees (54)
Step-by-step explanation: Using the law of sines you'd multiply both sides by b then plug in the known values... sin(B)= 9/11xsin(80degrees). Then, you'd evaluate to find B and after solving you'd reach 54
11 is angle somethingSQ is equal to angle QSR. 12 is something about the division property of equality
The answer according to me would be B (-a) + b
Because when you solve it. It would turn into a - b
