Answer:

SU = 2
PX = 6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of distances to the circle along a secant is the same for all secants intersecting a given point.

a. Secants SW and QT intersect at U. Thus ...

(UT)(UQ) = (US)(UW)

(1.5)(4) = (SU)(3)

SU = (4)(1.5)/3

SU = 2

__

b. Secants PT and PX intersect at P. Thus ...

(PQ)(PT) = (PR)(PX)

PX = (PQ)(PT)/PR) = (2.5)(2.5 +4 +1.5)/3 = 20/3

PX = 6 2/3

Find the average rate of change of f(x)=2x-1 from x=-1 to x=2

MrMuchimi

The average rate of change from x = -1 to x = 2 is 2

<u>Solution:</u>

Given function is:

f(x) = 2x - 1

We have to find the average rate of change from x = -1 to x = 2

<em><u>The average rate of change is given as:</u></em>

$\text {Average rate of change}=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

<em><u>The average rate of change from x = -1 to x = 2 is given by formula:</u></em>

$\text {Average rate of change}=\frac{f(2)-f(-1)}{2-(-1)}\\\\\text {Average rate of change}=\frac{f(2)-f(-1)}{3}$

<em><u>Find f(2) and f( - 1)</u></em>

<em><u>Substitute x = 2 in given function</u></em>

f(2) = 2(2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

<em><u>Substitute x = -1 in given function</u></em>

f( - 1) = 2(-1) - 1 = -2 - 1 = -3

<em><u>Substitute the values in above formula,</u></em>

$\text {Average rate of change}=\frac{3-(-3)}{3}=\frac{6}{3}=2$

Thus average rate of change from x = -1 to x = 2 is 2
