Given the function defined in the table below, find the average rate of change, in simplest form, of the function over the interval
20 < x < 65.

Average rate of change =

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change of a function 'f' in the interval a ≤ x ≤ b is given by,

Average rate of change =

We have to find the average rate of change in the interval 20 ≤ x ≤ 65

From the table attached,

f(65) = 32

f(20) = 14

Average rate of change =

                                        =

                                        =

Therefore, average rate of change in the given interval is .

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
