The function y = f ( x ) is graphed below Plot a line segment connecting the points on f f where x = − 5 x=−5 and x = − 2. x=−2. Use the line segment to determine the average rate of change of the function f ( x ) f(x) on the interval − 5 ≤ x ≤ − 2 −5≤x≤−2?

Find the number of positive three-digit even integers whose digits are among 9, 8, 7,5, 3, and 1.

Write a description of each inequality. 1. -5a + 3 > 1 2. 27 - 2b < -6 (this < has a _ under it) 3. 1/2 (c + 1) > 5 (this > has a _ under it)

Each of the following data sets has a mean of x = 10. (i) 8 9 10 11 12 (ii) 7 9 10 11 13 (iii) 7 8 10 12 13 (a) without doing any computations, order the data sets according to increasing value of standard deviations. (i), (iii), (ii) (ii), (i), (iii) (iii), (i), (ii) (iii), (ii), (i) (i), (ii), (iii) (ii), (iii), (i) (b) why do you expect the difference in standard deviations between data sets (i) and (ii) to be greater than the difference in standard deviations between data sets (ii) and (iii)? hint: consider how much the data in the respective sets differ from the mean. the data change between data sets (i) and (ii) increased the squared difference îł(x - x)2 by more than data sets (ii) and (iii). the data change between data sets (ii) and (iii) increased the squared difference îł(x - x)2 by more than data sets (i) and (ii). the data change between data sets (i) and (ii) decreased the squared difference îł(x - x)2 by more than data sets (ii) and (iii). none of the above
