I think you can do this way:
Volume = B*h where B is the area of the base.
B= 4 * 10 = 40
V= 40 * 15
V= 600 cm^3
<span>average rate of change = (f(7) - f(5)) / (x7 - x5)
</span>f(7) = <span>12 (7^3) + 12 = 4128
f(5) = </span>12 (5^3) + 12 = 1512
so
average rate of change = (4128 - 1512)/(7-5)
average rate of change = 2616 / 2
average rate of change = 1308
hope it helps
Actually, yes, it is possible for two different numbers to give the same result when squared.
In my last answer, I wrote that it wasn't, but I realize now where my mistake was made.
When a number like positive 4 is squared, the answer is 16. When a number like negative 4 is squared, the answer is also 16. I think that the only time when two different squared numbers have the same result is when they are the same number but have a different positive/negative sign.
I hope this helps.
