in a certain city, deforestation occurs at the rate of about 5.1% per year. If x is the total forested area of the city at the start of 2000, then f(x) = 0.786x is the amount of forested land in the city at the start of 2001. Find and interpret (f o f)(x). Find and interpret (f o f o f)(x).

  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).

definitely a. the others have almost all data points on one side of the line.
