The function f ( x ) = 2 x ^2 − x − 4 models the shape of a ditch. What is the average slope over the interval −4 ≤ x ≤ 2?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Determine the average slope over the given interval

This is calculated as:

Where:

So:

Solving for f(2) and f(-4), we have:

So, the equation becomes

853.3

step-by-step explanation:

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies
