Because division means "How many times can this go into that ?"

A decimal less than ' 1 ' is a piece of ' 1 ', so it can go into a number \
more times than the number.

Answer:

- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here [ a, b ] = [ - 2, 2 ]

f(b) = f(2) = 9 ← from table value of f(x) for x = 2

f(a) = f(- 2) = 25 ← from table value of f(x) for x = - 2, thus

average rate of change = \frac{9-25}{2-(-2)} = \frac{-16}{4} = - 4

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (2,−4) that is parallel to the line y=3x+2
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 3x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation we first need to note that parallel lines have the same slope. So since the original equation has a slope of 3, the new one will as well. Now we can use that slope and the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 4 = 3(x - 2)

y + 4 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 10
