<span><span>The average rate of change formula is basically the slope formula, where you plug in: f(b)-f(a)/b-a. Then plug in the numbers. [f(0)=1,f(3)=7)]. So, 7-1/3-0. 6/3 is 2 so the average rate of change is 2. And that makes sense because the average rate of change is always the slope, and the slope is 2.</span></span>
Answer:
i may not be correct idk but i think its a because it would have to be in between 2.5 and 4.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: The slope of f(x) is three times as great as the slope of g(x).
Part B: The y-intercept of g(x) is 12 larger than the y-intercept of f(x).
In order to find these two answers, you need to find a model for f(x). You can do that by first finding the slope. The formula is below.
slope (m) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
In this equation (x1, y1) is the first point and (x2, y2) is a second point. For this purpose, we'll pick (1, 0) and (0, -6)
slope (m) = (-6 - 0)/(0 - 1)
m = -6/-1
m = 6
Now we know that the slope is 6, which is 3 times as great as the first slope. Now to find the y-intercept, we can use either point and the slope in slope intercept form.
y = mx + b
0 = 6(1) + b
0 = 6 + b
-6 = b
So we know the y-intercept is -6, which is 12 less than the y-intercept of g(x).
The equation of the line is y = -2/3(x) - 4
m=6.50t
6.50 per ticket so you multiply 6.50 by t. The money collected is the answer to the equation. Hope this helps!
