Answer:

120 MW/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the average rate of change between two points in a function is:

Average rate of change (ARC) = f(x2) -f(x1)/(x2-x1)

Let's think  the power demad as a function d(x) depending of the hour of the day, so the variable x= hour of the day.

Now we have:

d(5)= 1600

d(8)= 1960

If we apply the mentioned ARC formula = [d(8)-d(5)] MW/(8-5)hour= (1960-1600)MW/3hour= 360/3=120 MW/Hour

Multiply (2n + 2)(2n – 2) A. 4n 2 – 4 B. 4n 2 – 4n – 4 C. 4n 2 + 2n – 4 D. 4n 2 + 4n – 4
sattari [20]
This system can be a bit tricky unless you write it out:
(2n + 2)(2n - 2) ~ First you have to take one variable and multiply it to each of the other two variables, like:
2n * 2n ~ And:
2n * -2 ~ This gives you:
4n^2 - 4n
Now we do this with the other:
2 * 2n
2 * -2
4n - 4
Now we combine them both while adding like terms:
4n^2 - 4
Therefore your answer is: A. 4n^2 - 4
(This is due to how when having the positive 4n subtracted by the negative it cancels it out. Leaving us with the remaining two terms left.)

I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^
