Answer:

Multiply the first equation by five to yield, 15x + 5y = 45. Add this equation to the second equation from the given,

15x + 5y = 45

+ 3x - 5y = 15

The answer would be 18x = 60. The value of x is 10/3. Therefore, the answer to this item is letter A.

Need help with this question ASAP!

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

(-6, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinate is at (2, -1), when using a dilation with a scale factor of 3, multiply the coordinates by 3.

(2, -1) ------> (2 x 3, -1 x 3) ----------> (6, -3)

When reflecting the point over the y-axis, take the opposite of the x coordinate.

(6, -3) ------> (-6, -3)

Place the three functions in order from the fastest decreasing average rate of change to the slowest decreasing average rate of

victus00 [196]

Answer:

g(x), f(x) and h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Interval: (0,3)

See attachment for functions f(x), g(x) and h(x)

Required

Order from fastest to slowest decreasing average rate of change

The average rate of change is calculated as:

$Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

In this case:

$(a,b) = (0,3)$

i.e.

$a = 0\\b=3$

For f(x)

$f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^x$

$Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

$Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3 - 0}$

$Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3}$

Calculate f(3) and f(0)

$f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^x$

$f(3) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^3 = 16 * \frac{1}{8} = 2$

$f(0) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^0 = 16 * 1 = 16$

So:

$Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3}$

$Rate = \frac{2 - 16}{3}$

$Rate = -\frac{14}{3}$

For g(x)

$Rate = \frac{g(b) - g(a)}{b - a}$

$Rate = \frac{g(3) - g(0)}{3 - 0}$

$Rate = \frac{g(3) - g(0)}{3}$

From the table of g(x)

$g(3) = 1$

$g(1) = 27$

So:

$Rate = \frac{1 - 27}{3}$

$Rate = -\frac{26}{3}$

For h(x)

$Rate = \frac{h(b) - h(a)}{b - a}$

$Rate = \frac{h(3) - h(0)}{3 - 0}$

$Rate = \frac{h(3) - h(0)}{3}$

From the graph of h(x)

$h(3) = -3$

$h(0) = 4$

So:

$Rate = \frac{-3 - 4}{3}$

$Rate = -\frac{7}{3}$

So, the calculated rates of change are:

$f(x) = -\frac{14}{3}$ $= -4.67$

$g(x) = -\frac{26}{3}$ $=-8.67$

$h(x) = -\frac{7}{3}$ $=-2.33$

By comparison:

From the fastest decreasing to slowest, the order is: <em>g(x), f(x) and h(x)</em>
