An exponential function has an initial value of 500 and a decay rate of 15%. Compare the average rate of change for the interval 0 < x < 4 to the average rate for the interval 4 < x < 8 What do you think will happen to the average rate of change for intervals beyond x = 8 ? Explain.

(05.08a)triangle abc is transformed to similar triangle a′b′c′ below: a coordinate plane is shown. triangle abc has vertices a at 2 comma 6, b at 2 comma 4, and c at 4 comma 4. triangle a prime b prime c prime has vertices a prime at 1 comma 3, b prime at 1 comma 2, and c prime at 2 comma 2. what is the scale factor of dilation? 1 over 2 1 over 3 1 over 4 1 over 5

Suppose that the price p, in dollars, and the number of sales, x, of a certain item follow the equation 4 p plus 4 x plus 2 pxequals56. suppose also that p and x are both functions of time, measured in days. find the rate at which x is changing when xequals2, pequals6, and startfraction dp over dt endfraction equals1.5.

The graph shows the function y equal 3x-1 what are the coordinates of the intercepts
