Question

The graph below plots a function f(x):

graph of line segment going through ordered pairs 0, 100 and 3, 220

If x represent time, the average rate of change of the function f(x) in the first three seconds is ___.

Numerical Answers Expected!

Answer 1

@iambatman

Answer 2

Average rate of change it just the slope

Answer 3

\[\huge m=\frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }\]

Answer 4

ok

Answer 5

Your ordered pairs are (0,100) and (3,220) just plug and chug

Answer 6

?

Answer 7

You have to tell me what part you don't understand giving me a question mark won't help.

Answer 8

The points you're given

Answer 9

@iambatman i do not understand who to plyg and chug xd

Answer 10

(0,100) and (3,220)

Answer 11

where do plug those into the equation though

Answer 12

The first coordinate is (x1,y1) and the other is (x2,y2)

Answer 13

ok

Answer 14

x1=0 y1,= 100 x2=3 y2=220 @iambatman like that?

Answer 15

Yeah, now use the slope formula

Answer 16

The slope formula is what I wrote above, did you get it?

Answer 17

no @iambatman

Answer 18

Well show me an attempt and I'll tell you if you're right or not

Answer 19

m=2202-1001/32-01 @iambatman

Answer 20

2202? 1001?

Answer 21

\[m=\frac{ 220-100 }{ 3-0 }\]

Answer 22

yes @iambatman

Answer 23

@iambatman

Answer 24

220-100/3 =?

Answer 25

33.333333333... @iambatman

Answer 26

What's 220 - 100?

Answer 27

120

Answer 28

the answer is 40 @iambatman

Answer 29

Yes
