Answer:

$1.12

Step-by-step explanation:

12÷3=4

1 box of markers is $2.50, Multiply $2.50 by 3 and you get $7.50. 12- $7.50= $4.50. $4.50÷ 2= $2.25. $2.25÷2= $1.12

Not 100% but i'm pretty sure this is the answer. Hope this helps. ( if i'm wrong sorry its 2:30 am)

For the function y=3x2: (a) Find the average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval [3,6]. (b) Find the instant

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The instantaneous rate of change of $y$ with respect to $x$ at the value $x = 3$ is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Geometrically speaking, the average rate of change of $y$ with respect to $x$ over the interval by definition of secant line:

$r = \frac{y(b) -y(a)}{b-a}$ (1)

Where:

$a$ , $b$ - Lower and upper bounds of the interval.

$y(a)$ , $y(b)$ - Function exaluated at lower and upper bounds of the interval.

If we know that $y = 3\cdot x^{2}$ , $a = 3$ and $b = 6$ , then the average rate of change of $y$ with respect to $x$ over the interval is:

$r = \frac{3\cdot (6)^{2}-3\cdot (3)^{2}}{6-3}$

$r = 27$

The average rate of change of $y$ with respect to $x$ over the interval $[3,6]$ is 27.

b) The instantaneous rate of change can be determined by the following definition:

$y' = \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{y(x+h)-y(x)}{h}$ (2)

Where:

$h$ - Change rate.

$y(x)$ , $y(x+h)$ - Function evaluated at $x$ and $x+h$ .

If we know that $x = 3$ and $y = 3\cdot x^{2}$ , then the instantaneous rate of change of $y$ with respect to $x$ is:

$y' = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{3\cdot (x+h)^{2}-3\cdot x^{2}}{h}$

$y' = 3\cdot \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(x+h)^{2}-x^{2}}{h}$

$y' = 3\cdot \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{2\cdot h\cdot x +h^{2}}{h}$

$y' = 6\cdot \lim_{h \to 0} x +3\cdot \lim_{h \to 0} h$

$y' = 6\cdot x$

$y' = 6\cdot (3)$

$y' = 18$

The instantaneous rate of change of $y$ with respect to $x$ at the value $x = 3$ is 18.

Find the slope of (0, 4), (− 5, 2)

vredina [299]

Answer:

⅖ is the slope

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope:

$\frac{ {y}^{2} - {y}^{1} }{ {x}^{2} - {x}^{1} }$

$\frac{2 -4}{ - 5 - 0}$

$\frac{ - 2}{ - 5}$

$\frac{2}{5}$
