Use the graph below to answer the following question: graph of parabola going through 1, 3, 3, negative 1, and 4, 0 what is the average rate of change from x = 1 to x = 4?

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points you're concerned with are (1, 3) and (4, 0). The average rate of change is

... (average rate of change) = (change in y)/(change in x) = (0 -3)/(4 -1) = -3/3

... (average rate of change) = -1

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

d is the answer
