.................... did this for the points
<span>3(5x + 4) - 20 - 13x = -4
first use the distributive property with </span><span>3(5x + 4)
15x+12-20-13x=-4
combine like terms
2x-8=-4
add 8 to both sides
2x=4
divide both sides by 2
x=2</span>
The average rate of change of a function, g(x), over an interval [a, b] is given by
Thus, the average rate of change of
over the interval
is given by:
![Average\ rate\ of\ change= \frac{[-(8)^2-4(8)]-[-(6)^2-4(6)]}{8-6} \\ \\ = \frac{(-64-32)-(-36-24)}{2} = \frac{-96-(-60)}{2} = \frac{-96+60}{2} = \frac{-36}{2} \\ \\ -18](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Average%5C%20rate%5C%20of%5C%20change%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5B-%288%29%5E2-4%288%29%5D-%5B-%286%29%5E2-4%286%29%5D%7D%7B8-6%7D%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%28-64-32%29-%28-36-24%29%7D%7B2%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B-96-%28-60%29%7D%7B2%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B-96%2B60%7D%7B2%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B-36%7D%7B2%7D%20%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20-18)
The answer is 3 3/4
Happy Holidays!
If it has only one solution that means that there is only one value of x that will fulfill this equation
35 - 5x + 6x - 36 = -24 - 17x + 17x + 24
-5x + 6x - 36 = -24 -17x + 17x + 24 - 35
x - 36 = -24 + 24 - 35 (I just canceled out the 17x because it would have justy made the process longer if I moved them over)
x = -24 + 24 - 35 + 36
x = -35 + 36
x = 1
