Answer:

The value of x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The point (x,-4)
  • The point (2,8)

To determine

  • m = -3

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

here:

  • (x₁, y₁) = (x, -4)
  • (x₂, y₂) = (2, 8)
  • m = -3

so substitute (x₁, y₁) = (x, -4) , (x₂, y₂) = (2, 8)  and m = -3

m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

-3 =  [8 - (-4)] / [2 - x]

-3 = [12] / [2-x]  

-3 (2-x) = 12

-6+3x = 12

3x = 12+6

3x = 18

divide  both sides by 3

3x/3 = 18/3

x = 6

Therefore, the value of x = 6

Can someone help me with part b?
Tema [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

the average rate of change of a function f in an interval [x-low, x-high] is

(f(x-high) - f(x-low)) / (x-high - x-low)

the year 2000 means t = 2000-1980 = 20

the year 2015 means t = 2015-1980 = 35

so, we have

(A(35) - A(20)) / (35 - 20)

((-0.6(35)² + 37.2×35 + 243) - (-0.6(20)² + 37.2×20 + 243)) / 15

((-735 + 1302 + 243) - (-240 + 744 + 243)) / 15

(810 - 747) / 15 = 63/15 = 4.2

the average change rate between 2000 and 2015 is 4.2.

that means that the use of nuclear energy in the USA increased by 4.2 billions of kilowatt hours per year during that period.
