The average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10 is 39, given that the number of pollinated flowers as a function of time in days can be represented by the function [tex]f(x) = (3)^{\frac{x}{2} }[/tex].
In the question, we are asked for the average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10, given that the number of pollinated flowers as a function of time in days can be represented by the function [tex]f(x) = (3)^{\frac{x}{2} }[/tex].
To find the average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10, we use the formula {f(10) - f(4)}/{10 - 4}.
First, we find the value of the function [tex]f(x) = (3)^{\frac{x}{2} }[/tex], for f(10) and f(4).
[tex]f(x) = (3)^{\frac{x}{2} }\\\Rightarrow f(10) = (3)^{\frac{10}{2} }\\\Rightarrow f(10) = 3^5 = 243[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = (3)^{\frac{x}{2} }\\\Rightarrow f(4) = (3)^{\frac{4}{2} }\\\Rightarrow f(10) = 3^2 = 9[/tex]
Thus, the average increase
= {f(10) - f(4)}/{10 - 4},
= (243 - 9)/(10 - 4),
= 234/6
= 39.
Thus, the average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10 is 39, given that the number of pollinated flowers as a function of time in days can be represented by the function [tex]f(x) = (3)^{\frac{x}{2} }[/tex].
