How far will the skier travel

2700 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

2 and a half minutes becomes 150 seconds. 150 seconds divided by 4 seconds, the amount of seconds it takes to cover 72 meters, is 37.5. 37.5 multiplied by 72, the meters covered in 4 seconds, is 2700 meters.

  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).
