Part A: 0.10x + 0.25 = 0.80 (dimes are 10 cents or 0.10 dollars, quarters are 0.25 dollars)
Part B: Plug in what you DO know and solve the one you DON’T:
0.10x + 0.25(2) = 0.80
0.10x + 0.50 = 0.80. Subtract 0.50 from both sides:
0.10x = 0.30 (Divide both sides by 0.10)
x = 3
Therefore you have 3 dimes

How do you find the average rate of change for f(x)=9-x^2 between two points: x=0 to x=3?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The average rate of change is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

f(x)=9-x^2

And we want to find the average rate of change from <em>x </em>= 0 to <em>x </em>= 3.

In other words, we will compute the function at the two endpoints, and then find the slope of the line that crosses the two points.

For our first endpoint at <em>x</em> = 0, our function evaluates to:

f(0)=9-(0)^2=9

So, our first point is (0, 9).

For our second endpoint at <em>x</em> = 3, our function evaluates to :

f(x)=9-(3)^2=0

So, our second point is (3, 0).

Then by the slope formula, our average rate of change will be:

\displaystyle m=\frac{0-9}{3-0}=\frac{-9}{3}=-3
