Answer:

If M is mid point then XM = MY

2x +5 = 3x -1

2x - 3x = -1 - 5

-x = -6....so

x = 6

MY = 3(6) -1

MY = 18 -1

MY = 17

A function is given. h(t) = t2 + 3t; t = −1, t = 2

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

(a) The net change of the function is 12.

(b) The average rate of change of the function 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of function $f(x)$ over the interval $a\leq x\leq b$ is given by this expression:

average rate of change = $\frac{net \:change \:in \:y}{change \:in \:x} = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

It is a measure of how much the function changed per unit, on average, over that interval.

Given:

$h(t)=t^2+3t\\\\t=-1\\t=2$

(a) To find the net change of the function, first we calculate the values of $h(2)$ and $h(-1)$

$h(-1)=(-1)^2+3(-1)=-2\\\\h(2)=(2)^2+3(2)=10$

The net change is simply the difference

$h(2)-h(-1)=10-(-2)=12$

(b) The average rate of change takes the net change and divides it by the change in the $t$ value.

$\frac{12}{2-(-1)} =\frac{12}{3}=4$

At one store, Julia saved $10 with a coupon for 40% off her total purchase. At another store, the $29 she spent on books is

barxatty [35]

Let "a" and "b" represent the values of the first and second purchases, respectively.
0.40*(original price of "a") = $10
(original price of "a") = $10/0.40 = $25.00 . . . . divide by 0.40 and evaluate
a = (original price of "a") - $10 . . . . . . Julia paid the price after the discount
a = $25.00 -10.00 = $15.00

At the other store,
$29 = 0.58b
$29/0.58 = b = $50 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of b and evaluate

Then Julia's total spending is
a + b = $15.00 +50.00 = $65.00

Julia spent $65 in all at the two stores.
