We are given the points
<span>(0,-4),(1,0),(2,2)
The standard form a quadratic function (in terms of x) is
y = Ax2 + Bx + C
Subsitute the points
-4 = 0 + 0 + C
C = -4
0 = A + B - 4
2 = 4A + 2B - 4
Solve for A and B
A = -1
B = 5
The function is
y = -x2 + 5x - 4</span>
The answer to the problem is going to be 3
4-x=31
-4=-4
x=27
27 is the answer
Average rate of change is (f(8) - f(-6))/(8 - (-6)) = ((<span>|8 + 3| -1) - (</span><span>|-6 + 3| -1))/(8 + 6) = ((</span><span>|11| -1) - (</span><span>|-3| -1))/14 = ((11 - 1) - (3 - 1))/14 = (10 - 2)/14 = 8/14 = 4/7</span>
45.3297 rounded to the nearest tenth is 45.3
3 is in the tenths place, so you look at the number to the right of it. If that number is 5 or more, you round up. If the number is 4 or less, you round down. So you round 45.3297 down to 45.3
