For this case we have the following function:

By definition, the average rate of change is given by:

We evaluate the function for the given values:
For x = 7:

For x = 14:

Then, replacing values we have:
Answer:
the average rate of change from x = 7 to x = 14 is:
a. 23.22
Answer:
no it does not you can identify that by doing the vertical line test
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we’ve been given a ratio, 3:8, we can convert that into a fraction and form an equation from it:
= 
The reason the numerator on the second fraction is 27/3 is because the team scored 27 points, not 27 baskets.
Simplify (Also replace the ? with an unknown variable):
= 
Cross multiply:
3*n = 9*8
Simplify:
3n = 72
Divide both sides by 3:
n = 24
The team had 33 three point tries, 9 successes, and 24 fails.
-T.B.
The solutions to a function are the points where the graph of the function crosses the x-axis, but only if the solutions are real numbers. If the function has imaginary solutions, then you don't see those on the graph.
