Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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

Here [ a, b ] = [2, 6 ]

f(b) = f(6) = 6² + 5(6) - 8 = 36 + 30 - 8 = 58

f(a) = f(2) = 2² + 5(2) - 8 = 4 + 10 - 8 = 6

Hence

average rate of change = \frac{58-6}{6-2} = \frac{52}{4} = 13

The sum of the angles in the triangle on the swing set is 180 use this fact to write an equation containing x,if a=65. How can I
SVEN [57.7K]
A=65 b=x c=x
so the equation is
65 + 2x =180
so you (-) 65 on both sides of the (=) sign
so 180-65=115
so now the equation is
2x=115
so you divide by 2
the answer is
57.5

Michael bought 160 hotdogs were eating competition he spends $240 an hour how much did each hotdog cost
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we know that its $240 per 160 hot dogs

2. make that a ratio - 240:160

3. simplify the ratio so that the amount of hot dogs is at one (so divide both sides by 160)

4. so 240/160 = 1.5 .   160/160 = 1

5. 1.5:1

6. so for every one hotdog, you pay $1.50
