Consider the two functions f(x) and g(x), where f(x) = 2x and g(x) is graphed below. Graph of g(x)

Compare the rate of change of the two functions on the interval 2 ≤ x ≤ 3.

The rate of change of the function g(x) is greater than f(x).
The rate of change of the function f(x) is greater than g(x).
The rate of change of the function f(x) and g(x) are the same.

the measure of angle M is 73 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of complementary angles is 90 degrees. so set up the equation as:

x+16+x-40=90

combine like terms and you get:

2x-24=90

add 24 on both sides and you get:

2x=114

divide by 2 on both sides to isolate x and you get:

x=57

since the equation for angle M is x+16, you substitute 57 for x and you get:

M=57+16

M=73
