To solve this we are going to use the average rate of change formula: A(x)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}
where
A(x) is the average rate of change of the function
f(a) is the position function evaluated at a
f(b) is the position function evaluated at b
a is the first point in the interval
b is the second point in the interval

We can infer for our problem that the first point is 3 and the second point is 6, so a=3 and b=6. Lets replace those values in our formula:
A(x)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}
A(x)= \frac{f(6)-f(3)}{6-3}
A(x)= \frac{6-6^2-2-(3-3^2-2)}{3}
A(x)= \frac{-32-(-8)}{3}
A(x)= \frac{-32+8}{3}
A(x)= \frac{-24}{3}
A(x)=-8

We can conclude that the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 1 x - x2 - 2 for <span>3 ≤ x ≤ 6 is -8</span>

Which equation demonstrates the distributive property? A) 2 (5 + 7) = 2 (7 + 5) B) 2 (5 + 7) = 2 × 5 + 2 × 7 C) (2 × 5) × 7 = 2
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property is when you distribute the values in a parenthesis with the outside multiplying factor

2*(5+7)= 2*5 + 2*7

2*(12) = 10 +14

24 = 24

distributive property holds true
