Part A:

To find the average rate of change, let us first write out the equation to find it.

Δy/Δx = average rate of change.  

Finding average rate of change for Section A

Δy = f(1) - f(0) = 2(3)^1 - 2(3)^0 = 6 - 1 = 5

Δx = 1- 0 = 1

Plug the numbers in: Δy/Δx = 5/1 = 5

Therefore, the average rate of change for Section A is 5.  

Finding average rate of change for Section B

Δy = f(3) - f(2) = 2(3)^3 - 2(3)^2 = 2(27) - 2(9) = 54 - 18 = 36

Δx = 3 - 2 = 1

Plug the numbers in: Δy/Δx = 36/1 = 36

Therefore, the average rate of change for Section B is 36.  

Part B:

(a) How many times greater is the average rate of change of Section B than Section A?

If Section B is on the interval [2,3] and Section A is on the interval [0,1].  

For the function f(x) = 2(3)^x, the average rate of change of Section B is 7.2 times greater than the average rate of change of Section A.  

(b) Explain why one rate of change is greater than the other.  

Since f(x) = 2(3)^x is an exponential function the y values do not increase linearly, instead increase exponentially. In an interval with smaller x values the rate of change is lower than an interval with larger x values.

“Camilla makes and sells jewelry. She has 8,160 silver beads and 2,880 black beads to make necklaces. Each necklace will contain
Usimov [2.4K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

96 necklaces

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

To find out how many necklaces Camilla can make, we need to see how many times the required number of beads "goes into" the available number of beads.

Silver: 8160/85 = 96

Black: 2880/30 = 96

Camilla has enough beads to make 96 necklaces.

_____

<em>Comment on this answer</em>

Obviously, if one of the quotients is smaller than the other, Camilla can only make as many necklaces as are supported by the constraining resource.

Even if she had 3000 black beads (way more than 2880), she could still only make 96 necklaces (for example) because she would run out of silver beads making that 96th necklace. (There would be 120 black beads left over in that scenario.)
