Given the function f(x)=-x^2-5x+12f(x)=−x 2 −5x+12, determine the average rate of change of the function over the interval -5\le x \le 4−5≤x≤4.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The function is

[tex]f(x)=-x^2-5x+12[/tex]

To find:

The average rate of change of the function over the interval −5 ≤ x ≤ 4.

Solution:

The average rate of change of a function f(x) over the interval [a,b] is

[tex]m=\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Putting x=-5 in the given function, we get

[tex]f(-5)=-(-5)^2-5(-5)+12[/tex]

[tex]f(-5)=-25+25+12[/tex]

[tex]f(-5)=12[/tex]

Putting x=4 in the given function, we get

[tex]f(4)=-(4)^2-5(4)+12[/tex]

[tex]f(4)=-16-20+12[/tex]

[tex]f(4)=-24[/tex]

Now, the average rate of change of the function over the interval −5 ≤ x ≤ 4 is

[tex]m=\dfrac{f(4)-f(-5)}{4-(-5)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{-24-12}{4+5}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{-36}{9}[/tex]

[tex]m=-4[/tex]

Therefore, the average rate of change of the function over the interval −5 ≤ x ≤ 4 is -4.

Carter is going to invest $210 and leave it in an account for 5 years. Assuming the interest is compounded annually, what interest rate, to the nearest tenth of a percent, would be required in order for Carter to end up with $250?

Answers

Answer:360

Step-by-step explanation:g-g5

The rate of interest will be 0.35.

What is compound interest?

Compound interest is the interest calculated on the principal and the interest accumulated over the previous period.

Compound interest formula

[tex]CI = P(1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{nt} -P[/tex]

and, the Amount is given by

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

Where,

A is amount

P is principal

r is rate of interest

n is number of times interest is compounded per year

t is time

According to the given question

Principal, P = $210

Amount, A = $250

Time, t = 5 years

n = 1

Therefore, the interest rate is given by

Amount = [tex]P(1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{nt}[/tex]

⇒[tex]250 = 210(1+\frac{r}{1}) ^{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]\frac{250}{210} =(1+r)^{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]1.19 = (1+r)^{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]\sqrt[5]{1.19} = 1+r\\[/tex]

⇒ 1.035 = 1 + r

⇒ r = 1.035 - 1

⇒ r = 0.35

Hence, the interest rate is o.35.

HELP ME PLZ !!! IT'S ALGEBRA

Answers

Answer:

x = - 8/23

y = 40/23

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x- y = 0

and

-8x+3y = 8

The first step to solve this would be to get what one of the two variables equal. The easiest in this case is y from the first equation.

-5x-y = 0

-y = 5x

y = - 5x

Now you can take this y value and plug it into the section equation.

-8x + 3(-5x) = 8

-8x - 15x = 8

-23x = 8

x = - (8/23)

Once you get the x value you can plug it back into equation one to get y's value

-5*-(8/23)  - y = 0

40/23 - y = 0

y = 40/23

Find the measure of each angle indicated. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

theta = 22.6 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of theta

To do this , we use the appropriate trigonometric identity

Let us identify the given sides of the triangle

we have the hypotenuse, which is the longest side of the triangle, given as 13 and the third side called the adjacent, given as 12

The trigonometric identity that relates the hypotenuse to the adjacent is the cosine

Mathematically;

cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent to the hypotenuse

Thus, we have it that;

cos theta = 12/13

theta = arc(cos) 12/13

theta= 22.6

this is a short problem.. sometimes you would need to distribute, but since there is no number in front of parenthesis you can just get rid of them

that gives you: 3z + 1 +5 + 7z

now from here we combined liked terms

7z + 3z = 10z

1 + 5 = 6

so that gives you: 10z + 6
