Let’s address the questions based on the content in the images you uploaded:
3(A): Find the average rate of change in the number of teens with phones from age 15 to age 16.
The average rate of change is given by the formula:
From the graph:
- At age 15, the number of teens = 341
- At age 16, the number of teens = 430
Answer: The average rate of change is 89 teens per year.
3(B): Find the average rate of change in the number of teens with phones from age 17 to age 18.
From the graph:
- At age 17, the number of teens = 580
- At age 18, the number of teens = 530
Answer: The average rate of change is -50 teens per year.
4: Write an equation for the height of the bouncy ball.
The ball falls at a rate of 30 feet per second from an initial height of 8,000 feet. The height at time (seconds) is given by:
where:
- = height at time ,
- = initial height,
- = rate of fall per second.
5: Graph the transformed function .
- The parent function has a vertex at and opens upward.
- The transformed function :
- Negative sign reflects the graph over the x-axis.
- +3 shifts the graph upward by 3 units.
Vertex: .
- The graph opens downward with slopes of and .
6: Graph the transformed function .
- The parent function starts at .
- The transformed function :
- : Shifts the graph left by 2 units.
- : Shifts the graph downward by 1 unit.
Starting point (vertex): .
7(A):
To add fractions, find a common denominator:
- LCD of 5 and 7 = 35.
[ \frac{3}{5} = \frac{21}{35}, \quad \frac{4
