Answer:

g(x), f(x) and h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Interval: (0,3)

See attachment for functions f(x), g(x) and h(x)

Required

Order from fastest to slowest decreasing average rate of change

The average rate of change is calculated as:

Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

In this case:

(a,b) = (0,3)

i.e.

a = 0\\b=3

For f(x)

f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^x

Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3 - 0}

Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3}

Calculate f(3) and f(0)

f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^x

f(3) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^3 = 16 * \frac{1}{8} = 2

f(0) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^0 = 16 * 1 = 16

So:

Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3}

Rate = \frac{2 - 16}{3}

Rate = -\frac{14}{3}

For g(x)

Rate = \frac{g(b) - g(a)}{b - a}

Rate = \frac{g(3) - g(0)}{3 - 0}

Rate = \frac{g(3) - g(0)}{3}

From the table of g(x)

g(3) = 1

g(1) = 27

So:

Rate = \frac{1 - 27}{3}

Rate = -\frac{26}{3}

For h(x)

Rate = \frac{h(b) - h(a)}{b - a}

Rate = \frac{h(3) - h(0)}{3 - 0}

Rate = \frac{h(3) - h(0)}{3}

From the graph of h(x)

h(3) = -3

h(0) = 4

So:

Rate = \frac{-3 - 4}{3}

Rate = -\frac{7}{3}

So, the calculated rates of change are:

f(x) = -\frac{14}{3} = -4.67

g(x) = -\frac{26}{3} =-8.67

h(x) = -\frac{7}{3} =-2.33

By comparison:

From the fastest decreasing to slowest, the order is: <em>g(x), f(x) and h(x)</em>

F(x) = x² - 8x + 5

f(-1) = (-1)² - 8*(-1) + 5

         = 1 + 8 + 5 = 14

f(-1) = 14.

Two similar rectangles have a scale factor of 3:2 the perimeter of the small rectangle is 50 feet.What is the perimeter of the l
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: 75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that two similar rectangles have a scale factor of 3:2 and that the perimeter of the small rectangle is 50 feet.

The perimeter of the large rectangle measured in feet will be calculated as:

= 3/2 × 50

= 150/2

= 75 feet
