:
3 • (a + 4)
————————————————— = 0
(a + 3) • (a - 3)
3•(a+4)
——————————— • (a+3)•(a-3) = 0 • (a+3)•(a-3)
(a+3)•(a-3)
a+4 = 0
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation :
a = -4
Answer:
The average rate of change over the interval is 120
Step-by-step explanation:
For a function f(x) the average rate of change over an interval [a,b] is given as;
f(b)-f(a)/b-a
in this case, a is 2 and b is 4
f(b) is 256 and f(a) is 16
Substituting these values in the equation for rate of change, we have;
(256-16)/(4-2) = 240/2 = 120
Just think 200% = 2x, so 2x of 18 = 36. Now for the 20%. Thats one fifth, so just do 18/5 and you have your answer when you add those together
