How can the average rate of change be identified for a function?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Digiron [165]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Rateofchange=\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}

where x₁ and x₂ are values in the interval [x,y] respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, first to determine the average rate of change of a function, you should have the interval of the values of x for the function.

So lets assume you have a function;

f(x)=x^3-4x

And the interval as [1,3]

Then the average rate of change for the function f(x) will be;

=\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}

where x₁ and x₂ are the interval coordinates x,y respectively. In this case x₁=1 and x₂=3

To find the average rate of change in this example will be;

=\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1} \\\\=f(x_2)=f(3)=3^3-4(3)=27-12=15\\\\=f(x_1)=f(1)=1^3-4(1)=1-4=-3\\\\\\=x_2-x_1=3-1=2\\\\\\=\frac{15--3}{2} \\\\=\frac{18}{2} =9

What is the explicit formula for this sequence?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is b.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sequence  -7, -4, -1, 2, 5.......  => a₁ = -7, a₂ = -4, a₃ = -1, a₄ = 2 and a₅ = 5

We conclude that this sequence is arithmetic series.

First we must find difference d:

d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ = -4 - (-7) = -1 - (-4) = -4 + 7 = -1 + 4 = 3

d = 3

The formula for n-th term of the arithmetic series is:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1) d

aₙ = -7 + (n-1) 3

God with you!!!

A slide has a diagonal of 10 feet and covers a distance of 8 feet across the ground. How many feet high is the slide at its high
Tasya [4]

So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.
