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)

A store charges 5.5 % sales tax on all items. If an item costs d dollars before tax, which expression represents the total cost
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: d + 0.055d or 1.055d

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of item = d

Sales tax percent = 5.5%

Total cost = Cost of item + Sales tax

= d + (5.5% × d)

= d + (5.5/100 × d)

= d + (0.055 × d)

= d + 0.055d

= 1.055d

Therefore, the expression that represents the total cost of the item, in dollars and cents, after tax will be:

d + 0.055d or 1.055d.

Given the following triangle, what is the measure of the missing side?
Karolina [17]
It's a half of an equilateral triangle because their angles measure 30° and 60° (an equilateral triangle has 3 angles of 60°)
So x=(2h/√3)/2=h√3=27√3≈15.6

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

She should select an industrial society (industrial population)

Step-by-step explanation:

An industrial society is a society that owes its operations to the use of technology which supports human usage of resources that allows high production turnouts.

An industrial society has high liking le preference for large population with a high capacity for external energy sources (e.g.fossil fuels) which in directly or indirectly increases the rate which resources are being used and also scale of production.

The resources could be human (labour) natural resources such as water, air, coal, natural gas, coal, etc. and it could also be technology advancements.
