Answer:

Alright, here is the formula.

m = (y2 -- y1) / (x2 -- x1)

So, now we have to take the points and replace them with the variables.

m = (1 - 2) / (-2 - 4)

Great! So now, we have to solve.

1 - 2 = -1

-2 - 4 = -6

So now, it would be:

-1/6

That is the slope! Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

9 cans of soup and the 4 frozen dinners were purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of cans of soup purchased.

Let y represent the number of frozen dinners purchased.

Lincoln purchased a total of 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners. This means that

x + y = 13

Each can of soup has 250 mg of sodium and each frozen dinner has 550 mg of sodium. The 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners which he purchased collectively contain 4450 mg of sodium. This means that

250x + 550y = 4450 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes

250(13 - y) + 550y = 4450

3250 - 250y + 550y = 4450

- 250y + 550y = 4450 - 3250

300y = 1200

y = 1200/300

y = 4

Substituting y = 4 into x = 13 - y, it becomes

x = 13 - 4 = 9

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 4x – 2 over the interval x = –1 and x = 2?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

$4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $f(x)=4x-2$

To find: average rate of change of the function $f(x)=4x-2$ over the interval $x=-1$ and $x=2$

Solution:

Take $a=-1,\,b=2$

Find $f(a),\,f(b)$

$f(a)=f(-1)\\=4(-1)-2\\=-4-2\\=-6\\\\f(b)=f(2)\\=4(2)-2\\=8-2\\=6$

Average rate of change of the function $=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

$=\frac{f(2)-f(-1)}{2-(-1)}\\\\=\frac{6-(-6)}{3} \\\\=\frac{12}{3}\\\\=4$
