Ok this is really worth 90 pts, so can any body please help me on this.Question 4 (Worth 90 points) Given the function g(x) = 6(4)x, Section A is from x = 0 to x = 1 and Section B is from x = 2 to x = 3. Part A: Find the average rate of change of each section. (4 points) Part B: How many times greater is the average rate of change of Section B than Section A? Explain why one rate of change is greater than the other. (6 points)
Question
Answer:
Part A:f(x) = 5^x
f(x) = 5^0 = 0
f(x) = 5^1 = 5
Use this formula to solve: f(b) - f(a)/b - a
5 - 0 / 1 - 0 = 5/1 = 5
____________________
f(x) = 5^2 = 25
f(x) = 5^3 = 125
125 - 25 / 3 - 2 = 100/1 = 100
Average rate of change:
Section A: 5
Section B: 100
Part B:
Section B is 20 times greater then A
Why?
Because Section B is increasing in the equation. Thus, Section B is of greater value than Section A.
