Answer: The average rate of change is 6.First, plug in each value of <em>t</em> into the function, v(t) to find there coordinate pairs.
v(2) = (2)^2 - (2) + 10
v(2) = 4 + 8
v(2) = 12
v(5) = (5)^2 - (5) + 10
v(5) = 25 + 5
v(5) = 30
You can write these values as coordinate pairs, like so: (2, 12) and (5, 30).
The formula for the average rate of change is

. When you plug in the values from this particular case, the average rate of change formula becomes

, or

.
Looking at the equation, you can solve for the average rate of change between t = 2 and t = 5, which equals
6.
Answer:
A. $1,710
B. Yes, probably.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that a 10% decrease in energy use leads to a 10% decrease in the electric bill:
We'll want to find the value which is 10% less than the original value, i.e., the bill cost which is 90% of the original bill.
90% = 0.9
Since the original bill was $1900, we can just multiply 1900 by 0.9:

Answer: A bill of $1,710 would equal a 10% decrease.
Since $1,672 is less than that, then they have decreased their energy use by more than 10% which is likely a success.
Answer: Yes, probably.

Answer: One vase should be placed 3 feet from the end of the mantel and the other vase should be placed 9 feet from the same end.
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that lenght of the mantel above their fireplace is 12 feet.
They want to place one vase
of the distance from one end of the mantel. This distance in feet is:

They want to place the other vase
of the distance from the same end of the mantel. Therefore, this distance in feet is:

Therefore, one vase should be placed 3 feet from the end of the mantel and the other vase should be placed 9 feet from the same end.
