Answer: C < B < A
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
First, let's evaluate the growth rate of A from [1, 3]

= 300
coordinate is (1, 300)

= 675
coordinate is (3, 675)
Average growth rate (AGR) is: 
AGR (A) = 187.5
*************************************************************************************
Next, let's evaluate the growth rate of B from [1, 3]
The coordinates are already provided as (1, 120) and (3, 480)
Average growth rate (AGR) is: 
AGR (B) = 180
*************************************************************************************
Lastly, let's evaluate the growth rate of C from [1, 3]
f(x) = 600(1.2)ˣ
f(x) = 600(1.2)¹
= 720
coordinate is (1, 720)
f(x) = 600(1.2)³
= 1036.8
coordinate is (3, 1036.8)
Average growth rate (AGR) is: 
AGR (C) = 158.4
The answer is -9 and 4.
-9×4 = -36.
-9+4 =-5
If there's 21 spoons and 27 forks than there are 48 utensils, and the ratio of spoon to total stilis is 21/48, and if you reduce that it is 7/16. So your answer is B. 7/16.<span />
