Answer:
b=4
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we have the function 
. We need to find b such that the average rate of change or the slope is -1/8 between the intervel [2, b]. First, let's find f(2).
f(2) = 1/(2) = 1/2
So, we have the point (2, 1/2)
At point b, f(b) = 1/b.
Let's plug this into the slope formula:
Now, we just need to solve for b. First, let's multiply both the numerator and denominator by b (to get rid of the annoying fraction in the numerator).
Now, cross multiply.
Solve for b. Factor using the numbers -4 and -2.
Thus, b=4 or b=2.
However, b=2 is not a possible solution since the interval [2,2] means nothing. Thus, b=4.
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you find the area of RPQ using 1/2×base×height. That is, 1/2×6×8. And the answer is 24. Then you multiply 24 by 4 to get the area of all the sides excluding the base to get 96.
Answer:
190.1, 101.89, 101.9, 100.789, 112, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x + 1
y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this question we need to represent "y "in terms of "x" in the first equation, and the plug in the "y" value in the first equation into the second one. Luckily for us in the first equation it already shows what "y" is equal to in terms of "x" (based on the first equation y = -x + 10). Now we just need to plug in the value that we got instead of "y" in the second equation, and so we get....
y = 7x + 2
(plug in the y value and get the following ….)
-x + 10 = 7x + 2
(now just solve the following equation)
-x + 10 + x = 7x + 2 + x
10 = 8x + 2
10 - 2 = 8x + 2 - 2
8 = 8x
8/8 = 8x/8
1 = x
Now that we know the value of "x", all we need to do now is substitute the value of "x" into any of the equations and we will get the value of "y". So we do the following.....
y = 7x + 2
y = 7(1) + 2
y = 7 + 2
y = 9
He took 36 weeks to compose 12 songs.
Unit rate : Divide total weeks by total songs:
Unit Rate = 36 / 12 = 3 weeks per song.
