Find the depth of the river at 9 hours and 18 hours by seeing where the line is on the Y axis.
At 9 hours the river is 18 feet deep
At 18 hours the river is 21 feet deep.
The average rate of change is the change in Y over the change in X
The Y is the depth and the X is the time:
(21-18) / (18-9) = 3/9 = 1/3 = 0.33
The average rate of change is 0.3 foot per hour. ( Rounded to nearest tenth)
Answer: B. The rate is 2, the initial value is 4, and the specific value is 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
for a linear function y = a*x + b
Rate = coefficient that is multiplicating the variable. ( a in this case)
Initial value = value taken of y, when we have x = 0 (b in this case)
Specific value = value forced on y.
In this case, we have:
y = 6 = 2*x + 4
Then:
The coefficient multiplicating x is 2, so the rate is 2.
The constant term is 4, so the initial value is 4.
The value equal to y is 6, so the specific value is 6.
The correct option is B.
It should be D, I did the math :)
No, 1/a^b (a^-b) doesn't equal -a^b
