Answer:

The instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at the value x = 3 is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Geometrically speaking, the average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval by definition of secant line:

r = \frac{y(b) -y(a)}{b-a} (1)

Where:

a, b - Lower and upper bounds of the interval.

y(a), y(b) - Function exaluated at lower and upper bounds of the interval.

If we know that y = 3\cdot x^{2}, a = 3 and b = 6, then the average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval is:

r = \frac{3\cdot (6)^{2}-3\cdot (3)^{2}}{6-3}

r = 27

The average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval [3,6] is 27.

b) The instantaneous rate of change can be determined by the following definition:

y' =  \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{y(x+h)-y(x)}{h} (2)

Where:

h - Change rate.

y(x), y(x+h) - Function evaluated at x and x+h.

If we know that x = 3 and y = 3\cdot x^{2}, then the instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x is:

y' =  \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{3\cdot (x+h)^{2}-3\cdot x^{2}}{h}

y' =  3\cdot \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(x+h)^{2}-x^{2}}{h}

y' = 3\cdot  \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{2\cdot h\cdot x +h^{2}}{h}

y' = 6\cdot  \lim_{h \to 0} x +3\cdot  \lim_{h \to 0} h

y' = 6\cdot x

y' = 6\cdot (3)

y' = 18

The instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at the value x = 3 is 18.

Find a solution to the linear equation y=−x+7 by filling in the boxes with a valid value of x and y.

Answer:

(x,y) = (0,7)

(x,y) = (3,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question and the attached image are different. However, the attached image answers the question y = -4 correctly.

So, I will solve for: y = -x + 7

Given

y = -x + 7

Required

Possible values of x and y

Let x = 0:

y = -x + 7

y = -0 + 7

y = 7

So, we have:

(x,y) = (0,7)

Let y = 4

y = -x + 7

4 = -x + 7

Collect Like Terms

x = -4 + 7

x =3

So, we have:

(x,y) = (3,7)

<em>So, all you need to do is: assume a value for either x or y, then solve for the other variable.</em>

Please help me so I can help my little sister
g100num [7]

Answer: Valentina measured incorrectly.

Step-by-step explanation: 1 feet equals to 12 inches. If you substitute this value for all the other values like 5 ft and 8 inches (Noah's measurement). Firstly, 5 multiplied by 12 is 60, then you would add 8 to it. Caleb already measured the same amount of inches as Noah so we can just leave that one. Same with Mary, 3 * 12 inches = 36 plus 32 which is also 68. Finally, we are left with Valentina in which she has 2 * 12 inches =24 plus 48 which is 72, not 68. Hence, Valentina measured incorrectly.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A.

 x < -3/2 or   x > 48/5

Step-by-step explanation:

12x + 7 < - 11

12x < -18

  x < - 18/12

  x < -3/2

Or

5x - 8 > 40

5x > 48

 x > 48/5

Answer

 x < -3/2 or   x > 48/5

X + 1/4 = 5/6<br> solve the equation for x
marin [14]

Answer:

x =7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 1/4 = 5/6

start subtract 1/4 from both sides of the equation which will move the -1/4 to the other side to get X by itself

x=5/6 - 1/4

find common denominator, which is 12

x=10/12 - 3/12

solve by subtacting

x=7/12
