Use slope for (y2-y2/x2-x1) to find the average slope.

Plug 4 into the function. The answer is y2 (4 is x2)

Plug 2 into the function. The answer is y1 (2 is x1)

(y2 - y1)/ (4 - 2)

(y2 - y1)/2

That is how you would get the average rate of change.

The equation to calculate the average rate of change is: y/x

y = f(x2) - f(x1)x = x2 - x1

x1: 1 (The smaller x value. It can be any number)x2: 2 (The larger x value. It also can be any number)f(x1): The value when you plug x1 into the function.f(x2): The value when you plug x2 into the function.

If we know this, the variables for this problem are assuming the function is 10(5.5)^x:

x2: 2x1: 1f(x2): 10(5.5)^(2) = 302.5f(x1): 10(5.5)^(1)= 55

This means:y = 302.5  - 55 = 247.5x = 2 - 1 = 1

Remember: the equation for avg rate of change is y/x

So, our average rate of change for the function on the interval [1,2] is 247.5 (y/x = 247.5/1)

Prove that the statement (ab)^n=a^n * b^n is true using mathematical induction.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

      (ab)^n=a^n * b^n

We need to show that it is true for n=1

assuming that it is true for n = k;

(ab)^n=a^n * b^n

( ab) ^1 = a^1 * b^1

ab = a * b

ab = ab

Then we need to show that it is true for n = ( k+1)

or (ab)^(k+1)=a^( k+1) * b^( k+1)

Starting with

  (ab)^k=a^k * b^k    given

Multiply each side by ab

ab *  (ab)^k= ab *a^k * b^k

   ( ab) ^ ( k+1) = a^ ( k+1) b^ (k+1)

Therefore, the rule is true for every natural number n

60 is 30% of what number?
Phantasy [73]
Percent means parts out of 100
30%=30/100=3/10

'of' means multiply

60 is 30% of what translates to
60=3/10 times what
multiply both sides by 10/3
600/3=what
200=what
the number is 200

help!!! Find x- and y-intercepts. Write ordered pairs representing the points where the line crosses the axes. y=2x+4
zhannawk [14.2K]

y- intercept = (0, 4), x-intercept = (- 2, 0)

to find the intercepts let x = 0 and y = 0 in the equation

x = 0 → y = 0 + 4 =4 ⇒ y-intercept (0, 4)

y = 0 → 2x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2 ⇒ x- intercept(- 2, 0)
