A manufacturing plant is looking at units shipped for a 3-year period. In 2005, the plant shipped 12,500 units. In 2008, the
plant shipped 16,000 units. Find the rate of change of units shipped over the 3-year period.
A. 3,500/
2,008
B. 3,500/
2,005
C. 3,500/3
D. 9,500

Option C - 3500/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Number of units shipped in the year 2005 = 12,500 units

Number of units shipped in the year 2008  = 16,000 units

Time period = 3 years

We have to determine the rate of change of units over the 3 year period. This is obtained by dividing the difference in units by the time period.

Step 2:

The difference in units over the 3 year period = 16000 - 12,500 = 3500 units.

Hence the required change rate over the 3 year period = 3500/3

Option C is the answer.

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

265 words per minute

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

    200 words per minute

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265

connie < felicia < stew

the correct answer option is (2x-3)(2x+3).

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to factorize it:

we are to find such factors that when multiplied they give a result of 36 (9 x 4 = 36) and when added they give a result of 0.

the two such factors of 36 are negative six and postive six.

factorizing the given expression to get:

therefore, the correct factorization of is (2x-3)(2x+3).
