a very fast way to do it:
Trivially 8.8*5>10, so the power of 10 is 6+2+1 = 9.
Therefore, the answer is 
3/4 is bigger. 3 divided by 4 is 0.75. 3 divided by 8 is 0.375
Answer: 41
Step-by-step explanation:
9*(-2)*(-2) - 4*(-2) - 3 = 9*4 + 8 - 3 = 36 + 5 = 41
Answer:
~59 games won, ~88 games lost
Step-by-step explanation:
I divided 147 by 5 to do a base unit. Then I multiplied by 2 for the amount won, then I multiplied by 3 for the amount lost. Hope this helps!
Answer: choice D) 20
-------------------------------
Explanation:
Locate 3 on the x axis number line. Draw a vertical line through 3 and this vertical line will cross the parabola at some point P. Mark this point P on the parabola. Then draw a horizontal line from P to the y axis. The horizontal line will land on y = 10. In short, this all shows us that (3,10) is a point on this parabola.
Repeat those steps above, but now for x = 7. You'll see that (7,90) is another point on this parabola.
We need to find the slope of the line through the two points (3,10) and (7,90). The average rate of change from x = 3 to x = 7 is the same as the slope of the line through those two points.
To find the slope, we use the slope formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points, and m is the slope
In this case,
(x1,y1) = (3,10) and (x2,y2) = (7,90)
further breaking down to
x1=3
y1=10
x2=7
y2=90
So we'll plug those four pieces of info into the equation and simplifying to get...
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (90 - 10)/(7 - 3)
m = 80/4
m = 20
The slope of the line is 20, so therefore, the average rate of change is 20.
