Answer:

162 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the rate you want take the inches which is 21 and divide by the cost which is 63 and find the rate is 3 which means each inch costs 3 cents and so with that rate you can find the cost of 54 inchest of wire so you take your 54 inches and multiply it by 3 which is the cents per inch and find that 54 inches of wire would cost you 162 cents

a. The expression y=5x represent the number of small marbles she has.

b. The expression z=3x+2 represents the number of large marbles she has.

c. Amy has 310 small marbles, 62 medium marbles and 188 large marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Let x represent the number of medium marbles Amy has. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of small marbles she has.

Medium marbles = x

Let,

Small marbles = y

According to given statement;

She has five times as many small marbles as medium marbles.

y = 5x Eqn 1

The expression y=5x represent the number of small marbles she has.

b. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of large marbles she has.

Let,

Large marbles = z

The number of large marbles is two more than three times the number of medium marbles.

z = 3x+2 Eqn 2

The expression z=3x+2 represents the number of large marbles she has.

c. If Amy has a total of 560 marbles, how many of each size does she have?

x+y+z= 560 Eqn 3

Putting value of y and z from Eqn 1 and 2 in Eqn 3

$x+(5x)+(3x+2)=560\\x+5x+3x+2=560\\9x=560-2\\9x=558$

Dividing both sides by 9

$\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{558}{9}\\x=62$

Putting x=62 in Eqn 1

$y=5(62)\\y=310$

Putting x=62 in Eqn 2

$z=3(62)+2\\z=186+2\\z=188$

Amy has 310 small marbles, 62 medium marbles and 188 large marbles.

Let f(x)=−12(x+2)2+5 . What is the average rate of change for the quadratic function from x=−3 to x = 1?

aev [14]

Answer:

Average rate of change = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change over the interval (a,b) is given by;

[ f(b) - f(a)] / (b-a)........................where interval is (a,b)

(a,b) interval =(-3,1)

Where;

f(x)= -12 (x+2)² +5

$f(a)=f(-3)=-12(-3+2)^2+5\\f(a)=f(-3)=-12(-1)^2+5\\f(a)=f(-3)=-12(1)+5\\=-12+5=-7\\\\\\f(b)=f(1)=-12(1+2)+5\\f(b)=f(1)=-12(3)+5\\=-36+5=-31\\\\f(b)-f(a)=-31--7=-24\\\\b-a=1--3=4\\\\f(b)-f(a)/b-a=\frac{-24}{4} =-6$
