Answer:

6.3


Step-by-step explanation:


  • <u>The number of car owners f(t) </u><u>in year 5</u><u> is found by plugging in 5 into t of the equation:</u>

f(5)=1.1(5)^{2}-2.5(5)+1.5=16.5


  • <u>The number of car owners f(t) </u><u>in year 3</u><u> is found by plugging in 3 into t of the equation:</u>

f(3)=1.1(3)^{2}-2.5(3)+1.5=3.9


So there is a change of  16.5-3.9=12.6 in the 2 years. So to get per year, we divide 12.6 by 2, to get:

\frac{12.6}{2}=6.3


Hence, <em>"The average rate of change of f(t) from t = 3 to t = 5 is </em><em>6.3 </em><em>thousand owners per year."</em>

Average rate of change from a to b = (f(b) - f(a))/(b - a) = {[1.1(5)^2 - 2.5(5) + 1.5] - [1.1(3)^2 - 2.5(3) + 1.5]} / (5 - 3) = (16.5 - 3.9) / 2 = 12.6 / 2 = 6.3

Therefore, t<span>he average rate of change of f(t) from t = 3 to t = 5 is 6.3 thousand owners per year.</span>

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying something by 10^-1 is just dividing it by 10.

So 3.02 / 10 = 0.302 since the decimal point moves one to the left.

How do you round off to the nearest 1000 ?​
mamaluj [8]

Rule I: While rounding off to the nearest thousand, if the digit in the hundreds place is between 0 – 4 i.e., < 5, then the hundreds place is replaced by '0'. Rule II: If the digit in the hundreds place is = to or > 5, then the hundreds place is replaced by '0' and the thousands place is increased by 1.
