First we calculate the ambio rate from x = 0 to x = 15:
We have:
R = ((80-10) / (0-15))
R = -4.666666667
We now calculate for the entire interval:
from x = 0 to x = 20:
R = ((80-2) / (0-20))
R = -3.9
Answer:
What is the average rate of change over the entire slide?
R = -3.9
The average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 15 is about -4.667. How does the average rate change from x = 0 to x = 20 compare to this number?
The percentage difference is:
(-3.9 / -4.666666667) * (100) = 83.57142857%
100-83.57142857 = 16.42857143%
0.37
0.194
0.6
0.473
0.29
the smallest digit at tenth place is 1 in 0.194, so 0.194 is the smallest here
I don’t understand how to do this
If we look at where it is now, we would have multiplied the x and y values by 1/2. since we are working backwards, lets multiply by 2 instead...giving us the vertex for the pre-image....
J is now (0, -2) multiply by 2
J was (0, -4)
Plug in n = 1 into the nth term formula
a(n) = 4n-1
a(1) = 4*1-1
a(1) = 3
So the first term is 3
The second term will be 7 because we add on 4 each time, as indicated by the slope of 4. This is also known as the common difference.
So the nth term is found by adding 4 to the (n-1)st term, in other words,
a(n) = a(n-1)+4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In summary, the answer is
a1=3; an=an-1+4
which is choice B
