Answer:
<h2>33</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the average low temperature by month in Nashville is represented by the function f(x)=-1.4x² + 19x +1.7, where x is the month, the average rate of change is expressed as d[f(x)]/dx = 2(1.4x) + 19
d[f(x)]/dx = 2.8x + 19
Since the number of months between March and August is 5 months and x is in months, hence we will substitute x = 5 into the resulting function to get the average rate of change from March to August as shown;
d[f(x)]/dx at x = 5
= 2.8(5)+ 19
= 14 + 19
= 33
<em>Hence the average rate of change from March to August is 33</em>
Check the picture below.
now, notice the triangles made, 3 right triangles with legs of 5 and 4 each.
looking at quadrilateral (1), from the leg 5 units long, we have a line with a run of -1 and a rise of 3, from the leg 4 units long, we have a line with a run of 4 and a rise of -1.
Now, quadrilaterals (2) and (4) display the same lengths and rise and runs, which means they're all congruent, quadrilateral (3) has no equal.
so 1 ≅ 2 and 1 ≅ 4.
I think the answer is the first one f(2) = g(2) and f(0) = g(0)
Even though we don't know the number yet, we need to give it some kind of label
so that we can work with it. We can call it anything. I'd like to call it ' G '.
The number we're looking for is ' G '.
Half of it is 1/2 G
The sum of that and 6 is 1/2 G + 6
Ten times that is 10 (1/2 G + 6)
The question says that's 8.
So 10 (1/2 G + 6) = 8
Divide each side by 10 : 1/2 G + 6 = 0.8
Subtract 6 from each side: 1/2 G = - 5.2
Multiply each side by 2 : G = - 10.4
That seems like a weird answer. We should check it.
The number: -10.4
Half the number: - 5.2
The sum of half the number and 6: -5.2 + 6 = +0.8
Ten times that sum: 8
Yep ! By golly, sho nuff, dV-dT and E to the X !
Everything checks out, and the mystery number is - 10.4
