Answer:

Average rate of change = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change of a function between x = a and x = b is defined by,

Average rate of change = $\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

We have to find the average rate of change of the function in the interval 2 ≤ x ≤ 4

Therefore, average rate of change of the function = $\frac{f(4) - f(2)}{4-2}$

From the graph attached,

f(4) = 4

f(2) = 2

Average rate of change = $\frac{4-2}{4-2}$

= 1

Therefore, average rate of change of the function in the given interval is 1.

A pendant is formed using a cylinder and cone. Once assembled, as shown below, the pendant is painted. How many square millimete

solmaris [256]

Surface area of cylinder is given by area of circle + area of the rectangle that curved around the cylinder

Area of the base of the cylinder = $\pi r^{2} = 8^{2} \pi =64 \pi$
Area of the cylinder 'wall' = width × length = $12$ × $2r \pi$ = $12$ × $16 \pi$ = $192 \pi$

Note that the wall of the cylinder is in the shape of a rectangle. The width of the rectangle is the height of the cylinder. The length of the rectangle is the circumference of the circle base.

Surface area of cone is given by $\pirl$ where $l$ is the slanted height of the cone

SA of cone = $\pi (8)(10)=80 \pi$

Hence total painted surface area is $80 \pi +192 \pi +64 \pi =336 \pi$

Linear equation: -1

Anika [276]

Answer:

The right answer is:

the addition property of equality and then the division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation and steps to solve it are:

Step 1: –3x – 5 = 13

Step 2: –3x = 18

Step 3: x = –6

In step two, -5 has to be removed from left hand side of the equation so additional property of equality will be used i.e. adding 5 on both sides

Similarly in the third step, to remove -3 with x , division property of equality will be used i.e. dividing both sides by -3

Hence,

The right answer is:

the addition property of equality and then the division property of equality

A plumber charges $50 to make a house call. He also charges $25 per hour for labor. If the bill from the plumber is $162.50.

blsea [12.9K]

4.5 hrs because 162.50-50 = 112.50
112.50/25= 4.5

What is the scale factor to go from small triangle to the large triangle?

Elis [28]

Divide both numbers in one of the ratios by their highest common factor. This will give you the scale factor of the bigger triangle to the smaller triangle.
