Answer:
22.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change on the interval [a, b] is the ratio ...
(f(b) -f(x))/(b -a)
For your function and interval, it is ...
(f(0.5) -f(0))/(0.5 -0)
Since f(0) = 0, this reduces to ...
average rate of change = 2·f(0.5) = 2(5(0.5)² +20(0.5)) = 2(5/4 +10)
average rate of change = 22.5
The number is increasing by 2 every time.
78 x 2 = 156
-4 + 156 = 152
The 78th term is 152
What you can do is multiply 400*20= 8,000. From here, we know that 399*20 is just one less group of 20 than 400. Therefore, we can subtract (1*20) from 8,000 to get the final answer.
8000-20=7980
