Answer:

D)2

Step-by-step explanation:

ƒ(x)  = x²/4 - 5; 3 ≤ x ≤ 5

Calculate the values of f(3) and f(5)

f(3) = 3²/4 - 5 =    9/4 - 5 =  -2.75

f(5) = 5²/4 - 6 = 25/4 - 5  =   1.25

Calculate the average rate of change

Rate of change = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = [1.25 -(-2.75)]/(5 - 3) = 4.00/2

= 2.00

The average rate of change is 2.00.

In the figure below, the red curve represents the function ƒ(x), while the black dashed line represents the average rate of change over the interval (3, 5).

The value of ƒ(x) increases by two units for every unit that x increases.

What is the answer to this somebody!!!
Fed [463]

Use the geometric mean for right triangles as the sides are related to the hypotenuse. 30 - 6 = 24. We need that for our proportion. \frac{24}{x}=\frac{x}{30}. We cross-multiply to get x^2=720. Taking the square root of both sides gives us that x=12\sqrt{5}, the second choice above.

A has the coordinates (–4, 3) and B has the coordinates (4, 4). If DO,1/2(x, y) is a dilation of △ABC, what is true about the im
loris [4]

Answer:

Coordinates of Vertices of triangle ABC are A (-4,3) , B(4,4) and C(1,1).

As, DO is Dilation of Δ ABC by Scale factor of \frac{1}{2}.

Vertices of A' B'C' are

A'=(\frac{-4}{2},\frac{3}{2})=(-2,\frac{3}{2}), B'=(\frac{4}{2},\frac{4}{2})=(2,2), C'=(\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2})

So, Image Δ A'B'C' will be smaller than the Pre image Δ ABC.

The two triangles will be congruent.

AO is Dilated by a factor of half , so A'O' will be half of AO.

So, correct Statements are

1. AB is parallel to A'B'.

2.DO,1/2(x, y) =  

The distance from A' to the origin is half the distance from A to the origin.

OA=\sqrt{(-4)^2+3^2}=\sqrt{25}=5\\\\ O'A'=\sqrt{2^2+(\frac{3}{2})^2}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5
