Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change is the same thing as the slope. This is a quadratic so the slope is not something that is constant like it is in a line. Here you have the x coordinates of 1 and 5; each one of these x coordinates has a y coordinate that goes with it. If we draw a line from one of these coordinates to another,  that line will have a slope. That is the slope we are trying to find. Thus, we need the y coordinates that go with each of these x coordinates. To do that, plug x into the equation and do the math to find y:

Let's start with x = 1.

f(1) = 17-(1)^2 so

f(1) = 16 and the coordinate is (1, 16).

f(5) = 17-(5)^2 so

f(5) = -8 and the coordinate is (5, -8). Now we apply the slope formula:

m=\frac{-8-16}{5-1}=\frac{-24}{4}=-6 So the answer is -6.

(3^n*3^2)^4=3^28<br> Enter the value of n for the equation<br> N= ?
maksim [4K]
Hello! And thank you for your question!

Use Pemdas to get

3^(n+2)*4=3^28

Rewrite the equation:

3^4(n+2) = 3^28

Cancel the base of 3:

4(n + 2) = 28

Then divide 4 on both sides:

2 + n = 28/4

Simplify 28/4:

2 + n = 7

Subtract 2 on both sides:

n = 7 - 2

Finally simplify 7 - 2:

n = 5

Final Answer:

n = 5
