Answer:

4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor for the linear dimensions of the ball bearings will be the cube root of the volume scale factor:

k = ∛(1.6/5.4) = 2/3

Then the scale factor for the areas will be the square of this scale factor:

ratio of surface area = (2/3)² = 4/9

_____

The area is the product of two linear dimensions, so its scale factor is the product of the linear dimension scale factors. That is, the scale factor for area is the square of the linear dimension scale factor.

Similarly, volume is the product of three linear dimensions, so its scale factor is the cube of the linear dimension scale factor.

F(x) = x^2-3<br> What is the average rate of change on the interval [-5, 2] ?

Mumz [18]

Answer:

$(-3)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Over this interval, the change in the value of this function is:

$f(-5) - f(2) = 22 - 1 = 21$ .

The corresponding change in the value of $x$ :

$(-5) - 2 = -7$ .

The average rate of change of function $f$ over this interval is equal to the change in the function value divided by the corresponding change in $x$ :

$\begin{aligned}& (\text{average rate of change}) \\ =\; & \frac{(\text{change in function value})}{(\text{change in $x$})} \\ =\; & \frac{f(-5) - f(2)}{(-5) - 2} \\ =\; & \frac{22 - 1}{-7} \\ =\; & \frac{21}{-7} \\ =\; & -3\end{aligned}$ .
