Answer:

The average rate of change of the function for the interval [-4, 0] is $\frac{3}{4}$ ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of the function is the slope of the line that represents the function, m = Δy/Δx, where

Δx = (x2 - x1)

Δy = (y2 - y1)

From the given figure

→ The values of x in the interval [-4, 0] are -4 and 0

∵ The point (-4, 0) and (0, 3) lie on the line

∴ x1 = -4 and x2 = 0

∴ x2 = 0 and y2 = 3

∵ Δx = 0 - (-4) = 0 + 4 = 4

∵ Δy = 3 - 0 = 3

→ By using the rule of the slope above

∴ m = $\frac{3}{4}$

∵ The average rate of change of the function = the slope of the line

∴ The average rate of change of the function for the interval [-4, 0] is $\frac{3}{4}$

The list price of a set of golf clubs is $399.99. If the series discount offered is 20/20/15, find the net cost after trade disc

Artemon [7]

Answer:

1,620/.60 = $2,700

step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the complement of the trade discount 100% - 40 = .60 •Calculate the list price $n Discount Rates EXAMPLE: The list price of the office equipment is $15,000. The chain discount is 20/15/10.Step 1. $15,000 X .20 =$3,000Step 2. $15,000-3,000=$12,000 X .15 = $1,800Step 3. $12,000-1,800 = $10,200 X.10 = $1,020Step 4. $10,000- 1,020 = 9,180 Net PriceCalculating Net Price Using Net Price Equivalent Rate EXAMPLE: The list price of office equipment is $15,000. The chain discount is 20/15/10. What is the net price? Step 1. Calculate each rates complement and convert to a decimal.100%-20 = 80% which is .8100%-15= 85% which is .85100% -10 = 90% which is .9Step 2. Calculate the net price equivalent rate. ( Do not round ).8 X .85 X .9 = .612 Net price equivalent rate. For each dollar you are spending about 60 cents.Step 3. Calculate the net price (actual cost to buyer) $15,000 X .612 = $9,180Step 1. Subtract each chain discount rate from 100% (find the complement) and convert each percent to a decimal.Trade Discount AmountList price x Trade discount rate = Trade discount amount $5,678 x 25% = $1,419.50Net Price List price -- Trade discount amount = Net Price

If h(2)=7 and h'(2)=-2,find d/dx [(h(x))/(x)] <br> A. –11/4 B. 2 C. D. 8 E. 16

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

A. $\frac{-11}{4}$

Remember that if f and g are functions with $g(x)\neq 0$ then, $\frac{d}{dx}\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{f'(x)g(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g(x)^2}$ .

Then,

$\frac{d}{dx}\frac{h(x)}{x}=\frac{h'(x)x-h(x)}{x^2}$

Evaluating in x=2,

$\frac{h'(2)*2-h(2)}{2^2}=\frac{-4-7}{4}=\frac{-11}{4}$

Then the answer is A.

The rate of change of the height is $\frac{1}{9}$ in/min.

<h3>What is a right circular cylinder?</h3>

A right circular cylinder is a cylinder that has a closed circular surface having two parallel bases on both the ends and whose elements are perpendicular to its base. It is also called a right cylinder.

Volume of the cylinder = $\pi r^{2}h$
