The average rate of change on the interval (5, 6) is 9. So the correct option is D.

Here we want to find the average rate of change of f(x), the function on the table, on the interval (5, 6).

This is just:

[tex]r = \frac{f(6) - f(5)}{6 - 5}[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x + c[/tex]

I we look at the table we see that:

[tex]f(1) = 1 = a + b + c[/tex]

[tex]f(2) =2 = 4a + 2b + c[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = 5 = 9a + 3b + c[/tex]

This is a system of equations.

If we subtract the second and first functions, we get:

[tex]2 - 1 = (4a + 2b +c) - (a + b + c)\\1 = 3a + b = a + b + c[/tex]

From that we take two relations:

[tex]1 - 3a = b\\2a = c[/tex]

Now we can replace these two in the last equations so we get:

[tex]5 = 9a + 3b + c\\\\5 = 9a + 3*(1 - 3a) + 2a\\\\5 = 9a + 3 - 9a + 2a\\\\5 = 3 + 2a\\\\5 - 3 = 2a\\\\2 = 2a\\\\a = 1[/tex]

Now that we know the value of a:

[tex]c = 2a = 2*1 = 2\\\\b = 1 - 3a = 1 - 3 = -2[/tex]

The quadratic equation is:

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

Evaluating this in x = 6 we get:

[tex]f(6) = 6^2 - 2*6 + 2 = 26[/tex]

And from the table we know that f(5) = 17, then the average rate of change is:

[tex]r = \frac{f(6) - f(5)}{6 - 5} = \frac{26-17}{1} = 9[/tex]

The correct option is D.

Answer:

g = 24 - 1/25m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Cadillac Escalade can travel 25 miles per gallon, each mile the Escalade travels is 1/25th of a gallon of gas.

This means that every mile the Escalade travels, 1/25th of a gallon is subtracted from the gas tank. Since the gas tank has a capacity of 24 gallons, the value of the gas tank is 24.

This leads us to the equation:

g = 24 - 1/25m

where g is the amount of gas left, and m is the number of miles driven.

I don't see the equation options.  See below for a predicted equation.

y= (2/3)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are (-3,2), (0,4), and (3,6).  I will assume they lie in a straight line.

Find an equation of the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).

m, the slope, is also known as the "Rise/Run."

Pick any two points.  I'll use (0,4) and 3,6)

Rise = (6-4) = 2

Run  = (3-0) = 3

Slope = 2/3

The equation becomes y = (2/3)x + b

B is easy in this case.  Point (0,4) tells us that y = 4 when x = 0 (the definition of b).

The equation is y= (2/3)x + 4

Answer: 10

The arc length of the semicircle is

a+(a+1)+(a+2)+(a+3)+(a+4)=5a+10

As x = 42, this means a+4 is 42/180 of the arc length of the circle, 5a+10.

So,

(42/180)(5a+10)=a+4

42(5a+10)=180(a+4) [multiply both sides by 180]

210a+420=180a+720 [distributive property]

30a+420=720 [subtract 180a from both sides]

30a=300 [subtract 420 from both sides]

a=10 [divide both sides by 30]

Answer:

s = 17units

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we are trying to find a specific unknown side length.

We're actually given some extraneous information (information that is not needed to solve the problem):  It isn't necessary to know that BC is 5.

If the side AD with the unknown length is part of a right triangle (the triangle in red in the attached diagram), we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for AD.

It isn't clear if the diagram you were provided gives ∠ABD as a right angle,  if it only gives ∠CBD as a right angle, or if it gives both as a right angle.  Below, we prove that it doesn't matter, because regardless, both must be right angles.

Is Triangle ABD a "right triangle"?

Since B is between A and C, then the two angles ∠ABD & ∠CBD form a linear pair, and by the linear pair postulate are supplementary.  Since they are supplementary, their measures add to 180°.  Using the fact that all right angles are 90°, substitution, the subtraction property of equality, arithmetic, the measure of ∠ABD is also 90°, and thus must be a right angle.  Thus, based on the given information, both ∠ABD & ∠CBD must be right angles.

Consequently, triangle ABD is a right triangle, by definition (it is a triangle that has a right angle).

Pythagorean Theorem

Since triangle ABD is a right triangle, the Pythagorean Theorem can be applied.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex] where "c" is the hypotenuse (the side across from the right angle) and "a" and "b" the the lengths of the two other sides (called legs) of the right triangle.  (Aside: Because of the commutative property of addition, it doesn't matter which of the two legs' lengths is used for a, and which is used for b.  The only thing that is required is that "c" be the length of the hypotenuse)

In our triangle, side AD, with unknown length "s" is the length of our hypotenuse, and sides AB and BD are the two legs.  Substituting values into the Pythagorean Theorem equation, we can solve for the unknown "s":

[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]

[tex](8)^{2} +(15)^{2} =(s)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]64 +225 =s^{2}[/tex]

[tex]289 =s^{2}[/tex]

Applying the square root property...

[tex]\pm \sqrt{289} =\sqrt{s^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]s=17 \text{ or } s=-17[/tex]

Final Solution

We discard the negative solution we obtained, since s represents the length of the side of a triangle.

s = 17units

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = -2

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the system of equations, you want to plug one equation into the other and then simplify. You can do this by setting one equation equal to a variable (like in the first equation), and then substituting the function into the variable into the second equation.

First Equation: y = -2x

Second Equation: 5x - 7y = -38

5x - 7y = -38                                <----- Second equation

5x - 7(-2x) = -38                           <----- Plug first equation into "y"

5x + 14x = -38                              <----- Multiply -7 and -2x

19x = -38                                      <----- Add 5x and 14x

x = -2                                           <----- Divide both sides by 19

Now that you know the value of one variable, you can use it to find the value of the second variable. This can be done by plugging x = -2 in to one of the equations.

y = -2x                                         <----- First equation

y = -2(-2)                                      <----- Plug -2 in "x"

y = 4                                            <----- Multiply -2 and -2
