Y-x =17
y = -x + 17
substitute this into the second equation
y = 4x + 2
-x + 17 = 4x + 2
0= 5x -15
15/5 = 5x/5
3 = x

2/3 IS GREATER SO THEREFORE YOUR ANSWER WOULD BE '>'
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the angle of depression be x.

Let [a, b] = the interval
The average rate of change can be found by using [f(b) - f(a)]/(b - a).
Let a = 1 and b = 5.
Let R = rate of change
17- x^2
R = [17 - 5^2] - [17 - 1^2]/(5 - 1)
R = [17 - 25] -[17 - 1]/4
R = [(-8) - (16)]/4
R = (-24)/4
R = -6
Done.
