The average rate of change is calculated as the slope of the line between the two points on the graph. Since at x = 1, y = -3, and at x = 3, y = 1, these are the two points which we calculate the slope from. Using the formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (1 - (-3))/(3 - 1)
m = 4/2
m = 2
Therefore the slope, or the average rate of change, between these points is 2.
First, divide 24 by 2 to find out what 1/3 of the gum is. The answer is 12. Then, multiply 12 by 3 to find the rest of the gum.
Your answer is 36 packs of gum.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-1)(x+2)/x^2(x-1)+2(x-1)
(x-1)(x+2)/(x-1)(x^2+2)
(x+2)/(x^2+2)
I think its 24% because .24 x 50 is 12 but I could be doing it wrong, sorry I can't say for sure.
