What is the average rate of change of the function over the interval x = 0 to x = 8? f(x)=2x−1/3x+5 enter your answer, as a fraction, in the box.

15 2/3, or 47/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume, correctly or not, that you actually meant f(x) = 2x^2 - (1/3)x + 5.  Double check on this right now, please.

If I'm right, then evaluate f(x) at x = 0 and x = 8:

f(0) = 5

and

f(8) = 2(8)^2 - (1/3)(8) + 5 = 128 - 8/3 + 5 = 133  - (2 2/3), or:   130 1/3

Then the average rate of change of f(x) = 2x^2 - (1/3)x + 5 over the interval [0,8] is:

                130 1/3 - 5         125 1/3

a. r. c. = = = 15 2/3, or 47/3

                     8 - 0                  8

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
