17.89, is this an option?
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change of the function f(x) from point
to point
can be calculated using formula

Given

From the graph of the function

So, the rate of change is

Answer:
See proof below
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to verify that if we substitute
in the equation
the equality is true.
Let's substitute first in the right hand side:

Now we use the distributive laws. Also, note that
(this also works when the power is n-2).



then the sequence solves the recurrence relation.
Quotient is the answer of the division
0.4/0.01 = 40 x 10 = 4/0.1 = 40 x 10 = 40/1 = 40
