A local agricultural cooperative claims that 55% of about 60,000 adults in a county believe that gardening should be part of the school curriculum. However, when you take a simple random sample of 300 of the adults in the county, only 50% say that they believe that gardening should be part of the school curriculum. Assuming that the agricultural cooperative's claim is accurate, what is the approximate probability that less than 50% of the sample would say that they believe that gardening should be part of the school curriculum?

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).
