Answer:

The average rate of change is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

g(x)=-x^2+x+5

And we want to find the average rate of change over the interval:

-4\leq x\leq 3

The average rate of change is synonymous with the slope. So, we will evaluate the function at its endpoints and find the slope between them.

Our first endpoint is given by:

g(-4)=-(-4)^2+(-4)+5=-15

And our second endpoint is given by:

g(3)=-(3)^2+(3)+5=-1

This gives us two points (-4, -15) and (3, -1). The average rate of change will be the slope between them. Thus:

\displaystyle ARC=\frac{-1-(-15)}{3-(-4)}=\frac{14}{7}=2

The average rate of change is 2.

The function f(x) = −x2 + 44x − 384 models the daily profit, in dollars, a shop makes for selling donut combos, where x is the n

A)
The vertex can be determined using the completing square method.
f(x) = -(x² - 44x + 384)
= -(x² - 44x + 384 + 22² - 22²)
= -(x - 22)² - 384 + 22²
= -(x - 22)² + 100
The vertex is (22 , 100) and this means that the maximum profit(due to negative sign of coefficient of x) is $100 and is achieved when 22 combos are sold
B) 0 = -(x - 22)² + 100
x - 22 = 10
x = 32
x - 22 = -10
x = 12
This means the shop gains no profit when it sells 32 or 12 combos, and this can be due to the production cost being equal to the money gained via sales.

Find f^(-1)for the function f(x)= (1)/(x+2)
Artyom0805 [142]

If f(x) and f^{-1}(x) are inverses of each other, then we have

f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right) = x

Since f(x) = \frac1{x+2}, we have

f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right) = \dfrac1{f^{-1}(x)+2} = x

Solve for f^{-1}(x) :

\dfrac1{f^{-1}(x)+2} = x \\\\ 1 = x\left(f^{-1}(x)+2\right) \\\\ 1 = x f^{-1}(x) + 2x \\\\ x f^{-1}(x) = 1 - 2x \\\\ f^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{1-2x}x \\\\ \boxed{f^{-1}(x) = \dfrac1x - 2}

(provided that <em>x</em> ≠ 0 and <em>x</em> ≠ -2)
