Answer:

Average rate of change = \frac{15}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

For a closed interval [a,b] in a function, the average rate of change is m=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}.

Thus, given our interval of [1,2] from the directions, we determine that f(b)=f(2)=-\frac{10}{(2)^2}=-\frac{10}{4}=-\frac{5}{2} and f(a)=f(1)=-\frac{10}{(1)^2}=-\frac{10}{1}=-10.

Hence, m=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}=\frac{(-\frac{5}{2})-(-10) }{2-1}=\frac{\frac{15}{2}}{1}=\frac{15}{2}.

In conclusion, the average rate of change of the function from x=1 to x=2 is \frac{15}{2}.

Six yards of rope costs $5.50 while four yards costs $4.75
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The best option is the first one (Six yards of rope costs $5.50). It is the lowest unit cost.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

For the given question case, first we should compare the unit costs of the choices provided and evaluate the best option.

Choice 1:

Six yards of rope costs $ 5.50

            \frac{5.50 \text { dollar}}{6 \text { yard }}=0.9167\ dollar/yard

Choice 2:

Four yards costs $ 4.75

           \frac{4.75 \text { dollar}}{4 \text { yard }}=1.1875\ dollar/yard

Thus, the best choice is the first one. Because it is the lowest unit cost.
