Answer:
The value of c from the equation is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
c/5 - 4 = -3
Add 4 to both sides of the equation.
c/5 = 1
Multiply both sides by 5 to get c by itself.
c = 5
Answers:
The formula is [f(-1)-f(-4)]/[3]
The value of f(-1) is 3
The value of f(-4) is -3
The average rate of change is 2
==============================================
Explanation:
For the first blank, we use the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
where 'a' and 'b' are the endpoints for the x interval
In this case, a = -4 and b = -1. When you plug those values into the formula above, you get...
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1 - (-4) ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1+4 ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
which is why the answer is choice C for the first blank
-------------------------------------------
To compute the value of f(-1), we draw a vertical line through -1 on the x axis. This vertical line crosses the diagonal function graph at the point (-1,3). The y value of this point is what we want. Plugging in x = -1 leads to y = 3. This is why f(-1) = 3
If you want, you can draw a horizontal line through (-1,3) and you'll see it touching 3 on the y axis.
-------------------------------------------
Follow similar steps as above to compute f(-4). Draw a vertical line through x = -4 on the x axis. Mark the point where the vertical line crosses the diagonal line. This point is (-4,-3). Optionally draw a horizontal line over til you hit the y axis and you'll find that y = -3 corresponds to x = -4
This is why f(-4) = -3
-------------------------------------------
We'll use the last three sections to compute the average rate of change. Everything combines together building up to this moment.
From the first part, we had the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
We can replace the "f(-1)" with 3 since we found that f(-1) = 3
Similarly, f(-4) = -3 so we can replace the "f(-4)" with -3
Doing those replacements and simplifying leads to...
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 - (-3)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 + 3]/[ 3 ]
6/3
2
So the average rate of change is 2
Note: because the entire graph is a straight line, the average rate of change for any interval a < x < b is going to be equal to the slope m. In this case, the slope of the line is m = 2/1 = 2. We move up 2 units each time we move to the right 1 unit along the diagonal line.
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by dividing 84 by 4 and you get 21. Then take 100 and divide that number by 4, and you get 25. There is your answer. The 21 jars of grape jelly are equal to 25% of the number 84. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Total surface area of the prism = 920 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given prism has 2 similar triangular surfaces and 3 rectangular surfaces of different dimensions.
Area of one triangular side = 
Area of 2 similar sides = Base × Height
= 8 × 15
= 120 cm²
Area of rectangular side with dimensions 17cm × 20cm
Area of the side = 17 × 20 = 340 cm²
Area of the second rectangular side with dimensions 8cm × 20cm
Area of the side = 8 × 20 = 160 cm²
Area of third rectangular side with dimensions 20cm × 15cm
Area of the side = 20 × 15 = 300 cm²
Total surface area of the given triangular prism = 120 + 340 + 160 + 300
= 920 cm²
6/14=x/20 cross multiply and get 14x=120 divide and get 8 2/30
