Dajuan is painting a mural on a rectangular wall. The wall is 14.5 feet long and 10 feet
wide. So far, his mural covers 60% of the wall.
Dajuan will paint the remaining part of the wall
over the next four days. He will paint the same
amount of the wall, in square feet, on each of
those four days. How much of the wall, in
square feet, will Dajuan paint on each of the
next four days? Explain how you arrived at
your answer.

Every day Dajuan will paint 14.5 square feet of the wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Dajuan is painting a mural on a rectangular wall, which measures 14.5 feet long and 10 feet wide, and so far, his mural covers 60% of the wall, and Dajuan will paint the remaining part of the wall over the next four days, painting the same amount of the wall, in square feet, on each of those four days, to determine how much of the wall, in square feet, will Dajuan paint on each of the next four days, the following calculation must be performed:

((14.5 x 10) x 0.4) / 4 = X

(145 x 0.4) / 4 = X

58/4 = X

14.5 = X

Therefore, every day Dajuan will paint 14.5 square feet of the wall.

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
