Answer:

The average rate of change of the function over the interval is of 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change:

The average rate of change of a function h(x) over an interval [a,b] is given by:

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

In this question:

Over the interval [-9,-2], so a = -9, b = -2, b - a = -2 -(-9) = 7

The function is:

h(x) = -x^2 - 5x + 14

h(-9) = -9^2 -5(-9) + 14 = -81 + 45 + 14 = -22

h(-2) = -2^2 -5(-2) + 14 = -4 + 10 + 14 = 20

Then

A = \frac{h(-2)-h(-9)}{7} = \frac{20-(-22)}{7} = \frac{42}{7} = 6

The average rate of change of the function over the interval is of 6.

The equations give you information as to where to plot points.

For y = -x + 1, you know the slope is -1, and the line intersects the y-axis at (0, 1). The y-axis is the vertical line; to plot (0, 1), find 1 on the vertical line and mark it. Now, the slope is -1; that means the line will slope downwards. To plot more points, count 1 unit down from (0, 1) and 1 unit to the right. You should end up at (1, 0).Connect those and you have a line.

For y = -2x + 4, the slope is -2 (so it will also slope downwards), and the y-intercept is 4. Find (0, 4) and plot it. The -2 tells you to count 2 units down (instead of 1 like we did for the last equation) and 1 over. That is the second line.

I hope this helps.

What’s the circumference, to this problem ?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The formula to get the circumference of a circle is C=2*\pi * r but in this case we see that a diameter is being used therefore we can get rid of the 2 and the r because that is what the diameter and just replace d into there like this C=d*\pi.

We can then input the value and we get that C=5*\pi which then just narrows down to C=15.708.
