Hello from MrBillDoesMath
Answer: + 4/7, 6 (13/14)
Discussion:
Let L be the larger of the two numbers and S the smaller of the two. Then the first sentence translates into this:
-6L - L = -4 =>
-7L = -4 => (divide both sides by -7)
L = - (-4)/(-7) = + 4/7 (*)
The second sentence translates to
2 (L + S) = 15 => (divide both sides by 2)
(L +S) = 15/2 => (subtract L from each side)
S = 15/2 - L = 15/2 - 4/7 (using (*) above)
So
S = 15*7/(2*7) - (4*2)/(7*2) (combine over common denominator of 14)
S = 105/14 - 8/14 = 97/14 = 6 13/14
Something is crazy here! While 2(L +S) = 15 -- check it out -- our larger number L ( =4/7) is actually smaller than the S number (6 13/14)! Maybe I should have called them Y and X, respectively, as you suggested!
Thank you,
Mr. B
The average rate of change is -5 per month
<h3>How to determine the average rate of change?</h3>
The interval is given as:
July to December
From the graph, we have:
July = 110
December = 30
The average rate of a function over the interval (a, b) is calculated as:
Rate = [f(b) - f(a)]/[b - a]
So, we have:
Rate = (30 - 110)/(December- July)
This gives
Rate = (30 - 110)/(12 - 7)
Evaluate
Rate = -16
Hence, the average rate of change is -5 per month
