<u>ANSWER:</u>

Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share. The algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share with a book club.

Each box contains 12 cookies.

So, in total we have 3 x 12 cookies = 36 cookies.

Now, we have to find how many cookies can each person p will get.

Let, the total number of persons be x.

Then, after equally sharing the cookies,

$\text { Number of cookies with each person }=\frac{\text {number } of \text { cookies available.}}{\text {total number of persons}}$

$=\frac{36}{x} \text { cookies. }$

Hence, the algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

Given the function defined in the table below, find the average rate of change, insimplest form, of the function over the interv

Reil [10]

To find the average rate of change in a interval

$a\leq x\leq b$

We use the following formula:

$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

Applying this to our interval

$6\leq x\leq15$

We have the following rate of change:

$\frac{f(15)-f(6)}{15-6}=\frac{107-53}{9}=\frac{54}{9}=6$

We have an average rate of change equals to 6.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line that passes through (4, -3) and

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the points (4,-3) and (3,-1) is -2

The slope of a line perpendicular to said points would be the opposite reciprocal which would be 1/2

heres how you'd find the initial slope of the points

(4, -3)

-1 +2

(3, -1)

Slope= rise/run= 2/-1= -2
