Which number has the same value as 3 X 1/10?

irakobra [83]

To find the same value as 3 x 1/10 you first have to solve 3 x 1/10

so how to do this is you have to make 3 into a fraction

so to make 3 into a fraction you can put 3 as the numerator and 1 as the denominator

so you multiply
$\frac{3}{1} \times \frac{1}{10} = \frac{3}{10}$
so 3/10 has the same value as 3x1/10

Find the average rate of change for the given function from x = −1 to x = 2.

Mashutka [201]

$the \: average \: rate \: of \: change = \frac{f(x2) - f(x1)}{x2 - x1} \\ \frac{f(2) - f( - 1)}{ 2 - - 1} = \\ \frac{ - 3(2) + 2 - ( - 3( - 1) + 2)}{3} = \\ \frac{ - 6 + 2 - 3 - 2}{3} = \frac{ - 9}{3} = - 3$
