Arrange these functions from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change in the specified interval.Tiles
Ugo [173]

By definition, the average rate of change is given by:

AVR = \frac{f(x2)-f(x1)}{x2-x1}

We evaluate each of the functions in the given interval.

We have then:

For f (x) = x ^ 2 + 3x:

Evaluating for x = -2:

f (-2) = (-2) ^ 2 + 3 (-2)\\f (-2) = 4 - 6\\f (-2) = - 2

Evaluating for x = 3:

f (3) = (3) ^ 2 + 3 (3)\\f (3) = 9 + 9\\f (3) = 18

Then, the AVR is:

AVR = \frac{18-(-2)}{3-(-2)}

AVR = \frac{18+2}{3+2}

AVR = \frac{20}{5}

AVR = 4


For f (x) = 3x - 8:

Evaluating for x =4:

f (4) = 3 (4) - 8\\f (4) = 12 - 8\\f (4) = 4

Evaluating for x = 5:

f (5) = 3 (5) - 8\\f (5) = 15 - 8\\f (5) = 7

Then, the AVR is:

AVR = \frac{7-4}{5-4}

AVR = \frac{3}{1}

AVR = 3


For f (x) = x ^ 2 - 2x:

Evaluating for x = -3:

f (-3) = (-3) ^ 2 - 2 (-3)\\f (-3) = 9 + 6\\f (-3) = 15

Evaluating for x = 4:

f (4) = (4) ^ 2 - 2 (4)\\f (4) = 16 - 8\\f (4) = 8

Then, the AVR is:

AVR = \frac{8-15}{4-(-3)}

AVR = \frac{-7}{4+3}

AVR = \frac{-7}{7}

AVR = -1


For f (x) = x ^ 2 - 5:

Evaluating for x = -1:

f (-1) = (-1) ^ 2 - 5\\f (-1) = 1 - 5\\f (-1) = - 4

Evaluating for x = 1:

f (1) = (1) ^ 2 - 5\\f (1) = 1 - 5\\f (1) = - 4

Then, the AVR is:

AVR = \frac{-4-(-4)}{1-(-1)}

AVR = \frac{-4+4}{1+1}

AVR = \frac{0}{2}

AVR = 0


Answer:

from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change in the specified interval:


f(x) = x^2 + 3x interval: [-2, 3]

f(x) = 3x - 8 interval: [4, 5]

f(x) = x^2 - 5 interval: [-1, 1]

f(x) = x^2 - 2x interval: [-3, 4]

If two lines are perpendicular describe the relationship between their slopes
Aloiza [94]
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals. example: line a has a slope of 2/3, line b has a slope if -3/2 if they are perpendicular.

The local pizza shop sells several special items.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Tax for Italian Salad=$0.20

Tax for Lasagna= $0.43

Tax for  Spaghetti =$0.21

Tax for Fettuccini Alfredo   =$0.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to multiple the price of each item by the tax percentage in decimal form (divided by 100):

Italian Salad =$3.99  

  • Tax for Italian Salad= 3.99 x (5/100) = 3.99 x 0.05 =$0.20

Lasagna =$8.50  

  • Tax for Lasagna= 8.50 x (5/100) = 8.50 x 0.05 =$0.43

Spaghetti =$4.29  

  • Tax for Spaghetti = 4.29x (5/100) = 4.29 x 0.05 =$0.21

Fettuccini Alfredo =$7.17

  • Tax for Fettuccini Alfredo = 7.17 x (5/100) = 7.17 x 0.05 =$0.36

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
