Answer:

The average rate of change of the given function

A(x) =  1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given function f(x) = x² - 2x -4

And given that x = a = -1 and  x=b = 4

The average rate of change of the given function

A(x) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

f(x) = x² - 2x -4

f(-1) = (-1)² - 2(-1) -4 = 1+2-4 = -1

f(4) = 4² -2(4) -4 = 16 -12 = 4

The average rate of change of the given function

A(x) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

A(x) = \frac{4-(-1)}{4-(-1)} = \frac{5}{5} = 1

<u><em>final answer:-</em></u>

The average rate of change of the given function

A(x) =  1

Answer:

A(x) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-1) = (-1)^{2} -2(-1)-4 == -1\\f(4) = (4)^{2} -2(4)-4 == 4

When we plug this into the formula for rate of change we end up with...

\frac{f(4)-f(-1)}{4-(-1)} \\= \frac{4-(-1)}{4+1} \\= \frac{5}{5}\\= 1

A water tank hols 540 galloms but is leaking at a rate of 4 gallons per week a second water tank holds 720 gallons but is leakin
Murrr4er [49]
Let after n week both tanks have same quantity of water .

for first tank
=============
tank hold 540 gallon of water ,
leaking of water 4 gallon /week
so, in n week water leak from the tank =4× n = 4n

now, after n week quantity of water in the tank = 540 -4n

for second tank
==============
quantity of water in the tank =720 gallon
leaking of water at the rate = 7gallon/week
so, after n week water leak from the tank = 7× n =7n

after n week quantity of water rest in the tank = 720 -7n

now ,
according to question ,

water in first tank = water in second tank
540 -4n = 720 -7n

7n -4n = 720 -540

3n = 180

n = 60

hence , after 60 week both tank have same quantity of water.
