Answer:

XY = 8 and YZ = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If XY and YZ are on the one line, we can write

XY + YZ = 28

(2x+2) + (9x - 7) = 28

2x+2 + 9x - 7 = 28

11x - 5 = 28

11x = 33

x = 3

XY = 2x+2 = 2*3 + 2 = 8

YZ = 9x - 7 = 9*3 - 7 = 27 - 7 = 20

Liula [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is simply the change in y over the change in x between the two points. It's essentially the slope of the line:

$\frac{f(5)-f(3)}{5-3} =\frac{17-11}{2} =6/2=3$

Thus, the average rate of change is 3.

Hope this helps!
