Calculate the average rate of change of f(x) over the interval [-4, -1] using the formula [ BLANK ] The value of f(-1) is [BLANK
lesantik [10]
Answers:
The formula is [f(-1)-f(-4)]/[3]
The value of f(-1) is 3
The value of f(-4) is -3
The average rate of change is 2

==============================================

Explanation:

For the first blank, we use the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
where 'a' and 'b' are the endpoints for the x interval

In this case, a = -4 and b = -1. When you plug those values into the formula above, you get...
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1 - (-4) ] 
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1+4 ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
which is why the answer is choice C for the first blank

-------------------------------------------

To compute the value of f(-1), we draw a vertical line through -1 on the x axis. This vertical line crosses the diagonal function graph at the point (-1,3). The y value of this point is what we want. Plugging in x = -1 leads to y = 3. This is why f(-1) = 3
If you want, you can draw a horizontal line through (-1,3) and you'll see it touching 3 on the y axis.

-------------------------------------------

Follow similar steps as above to compute f(-4). Draw a vertical line through x = -4 on the x axis. Mark the point where the vertical line crosses the diagonal line. This point is (-4,-3). Optionally draw a horizontal line over til you hit the y axis and you'll find that y = -3 corresponds to x = -4

This is why f(-4) = -3

-------------------------------------------

We'll use the last three sections to compute the average rate of change. Everything combines together building up to this moment.

From the first part, we had the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]

We can replace the "f(-1)" with 3 since we found that f(-1) = 3
Similarly, f(-4) = -3 so we can replace the "f(-4)" with -3

Doing those replacements and simplifying leads to...

[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 - (-3)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 + 3]/[ 3 ]
6/3
2

So the average rate of change is 2

Note: because the entire graph is a straight line, the average rate of change for any interval a < x < b is going to be equal to the slope m. In this case, the slope of the line is m = 2/1 = 2. We move up 2 units each time we move to the right 1 unit along the diagonal line.

Triangle XYZ has vertices X(0,3), Y(2,0) and Z(4,2). if yo reflect triangle XYZ across the line x=4, what will be the coordinate
Paha777 [63]

As X' is the reflected point of X(0,3) , so the x co ordinate of X' = 0+8 =8 and here y co ordinate remains same.

So, X'= (8,3)

Like that way, Y' is the reflected point of Y(2,0) and Z' is the reflected point of Z(4,2)

As the point Z is lying on the line x=4 and the reflection is also across that line, so both Z and Z' represent same point.

Y'= (2+4, 0) = (6, 0)

Z' = (4, 2)
