we know that
Average Rate of Change. is the change in the y-value divided by the change in the x-value for two distinct points on the graph
So

in this problem

substitute the values in the formula above

Divide by
both numerator and denominator

therefore
the answer is

Answer:
The lizards are $25 each and each walked in with $81
Step-by-step explanation: find the difference between the amount they each had left which is 25 and that is how much 1 lizard cost and then add that to the $56 so you get $56+25=81 and 81 is the initial amount they walked in with
Answer:
The sign would be positive.
The answer would be 144.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that there are two negative numbers and two positive numbers:
positive x positive = positive answer.
negative x negative = positive answer.
Solve:
(-4) * (-3) = 12
2 * 6 = 12
12 * 12 = 144
144 would be your answer.

Answer:
It's like solving a quadratic, but in reverse, and in this case you'll arrive at x2+x−12=0
Explanation:
We're going to go "backwards" with this problem - normally we're asked to take a quadratic equation and find the roots. So we'll do what we normally do, but in reverse:
Let's start with the roots:
x=3, x=−4
So let's move the constants over with the x terms to have equations equal to 0:
x−3=0, x+4=0
Now we can set up the equation, as:
(x−3)(x+4)=0
We can now distribute out the 2 quantities:
x2+x−12=0
Steps to solve:
1/2hb = d²
~Divide 1/2h to both sides
b = 2d²/h
Best of Luck!
