Answer:  s=\dfrac{(d-5)}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: d denotes Diego's age while s denotes his sister's age.

The situation is represented by the equation d=2s+5.

To find his sister's age we can write the above equation as s=\dfrac{(d-5)}{2} [we first subtract 5 from both sides and then divide both sides by 2]

Hence, the required equation: s=\dfrac{(d-5)}{2}.

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x)=20(14)xf(x)=20(14)x from x = 1 to x = 2? Enter your answer, as a decimal
Advocard [28]
The average rate of a function f(x) over an interval x = a and x = b is given by:

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

Given the function

f(x)=20(14)^x

The average rate of change from x = 1 to x = 2 is given by:

\frac{f(2)-f(1)}{2-1} = \frac{20(14)^2-20(14)^1}{1}  \\  \\ =20(196-14)=20(182)=3,640
