Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it would be immensely helpful to know the equation of this parabola, we need to figure it out before we can continue. We have the work form of a positive upwards-opening parabola as
where a is the leading coefficient that determines the steepness of lack thereof of the parabola, x and y are coordinates of a point on the graph, and h and k are the coordinates of the vertex. We know the vertex: V(-3, -3), and it looks like the graph goes through the point P(-2, -1). Now we will fill in the work form equation and solve for a:
which simplifies a bit to
and
-1 = a(1) - 3. Therefore, a = 2 and our parabola is
Now that know the equation, we can find the value of y when x = -3 (which is already given in the vertex) and the value of y when x = -4. Do this by subbing in the values of x one at a time to find y. When x = -3, y = -3 so the coordinate of that point (aka the vertex) is (-3, -3). When x = -4, y = -1 so the coordinate of that point is (-4, -1). The average rate of change between those 2 points is also the slope of the line between those 2 points, so we will use the slope formula to find it:
And there you have it! I'm very surprised that this question sat unanswered for so very long! I'm sorry I didn't see it earlier!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Domain is
Average rate of change of bacteria per minute is -3333.33.
Step-by-step explanation:
Domain is the possible values of .
From the graph, it's clear that the values ranges from 0 to 18 as the end points of the graph are and
So, domain of the function is .
Now, average rate of change is negative as there is bacteria decay.
Average rate of change is given as the negative ratio of y intercept to the x intercept.
Here, x-intercept is 18 and y-intercept is 60000.
So, average rate of change is given as,
Therefore, average rate of change of bacteria per minute is -3333.33.
