Find the average rate of change of the function from x=1 to x=2. f(x)=−14/x^2

Answer:

The average rate of change of the function from x=1 to x=2 will be: 10.5                

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f\left(x\right)=-\frac{14}{x^2}

at x₁ = 1,

f(x₁) = f(1) =  -14/(1)² = -14/1 = -14

at x₂ = 2,

f(x₂) = f(2) = -14/(2)² = -14/(4) = -3.5

Using the formula to determine the average rate of change at which the total cost increases will be:

Average rate of change = [f(x₂) - f(x₁)] / [ x₂ - x₁]

                                        = [-3.5 - (-14)] / [2 - 1]

                                        = [-3.5 + 14] / [1]

                                        = 10.5 / 1

                                        = 10.5

Therefore, the average rate of change of the function from x=1 to x=2 will be: 10.5

Increase £84 by 3%<br> thank you!
Alex777 [14]
If you would like to increase £84 by 3%, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3% * £84 = 3/100 * 84 = £2.52

£84 + £2.52 = £86.52

The correct result is £86.52.

What is the value of x in the equation -2/9x=2/5
densk [106]

Answer:

x = (-9)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(-2 x)/9 = 2/5

Hint: | Multiply both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Multiply both sides of (-2 x)/9 = 2/5 by -9/2:

(-9 (-2) x)/(2×9) = (-9)/2×2/5

Hint: | Express (-9)/2×(-2)/9 as a single fraction.

(-9)/2×(-2)/9 = (-9 (-2))/(2×9):

(-9 (-2))/(2×9) x = (-9)/2×2/5

Hint: | Express (-9)/2×2/5 as a single fraction.

(-9)/2×2/5 = (-9×2)/(2×5):

(-9 (-2) x)/(2×9) = (-9×2)/(2×5)

Hint: | In (-9 (-2) x)/(2×9), divide -9 in the numerator by 9 in the denominator.

(-9)/9 = (9 (-1))/9 = -1:

(-2-1 x)/2 = (-9×2)/(2×5)

Hint: | In (-(-2) x)/2, divide -2 in the numerator by 2 in the denominator.

(-2)/2 = (2 (-1))/2 = -1:

--1 x = (-9×2)/(2×5)

Hint: | Multiply all instances of -1 in -(-x).

(-1)^2 = 1:

x = (-9×2)/(2×5)

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (-9×2)/(2×5).

(-9×2)/(2×5) = 2/2×(-9)/5 = (-9)/5:

Answer: x = (-9)/5
