Hello, me and my teacher are having a debate regarding the average percentage of change between 2 sets, 2 numbers in each set. The sets are trials for a science experiment, the numbers for each set are before and after. So set A would be A1 for before experiment and A2 for after. I calculated the percentage change for both sets individually and divided it by 2 to get my average, my teacher, however, averaged the start experiment digits (A1 + B1) and the post-experiment digits (A2+B2). He then plugged the average numbers into the percentage change formula, we got different answers, here is the raw math:
My way:
A = (11.8 – 9.8) / 9.8 x100 = 20.4082% increase
B = (12.5 – 10.9) / 10.9 x 100 = 14.6789% increase
A+B = 35.0871
35.0871 / 2 = 17.54355
Teacher way:
(A1 + B1) / 2 = 10.35
(A2 + B2) / 2 = 12.15
(V2-V1) / V1 x 100 = (12.15 – 10.35) / 10.35 x 100 = 17.3913…%
The answer have a decimal difference any my question is regarding which one is more accurate for the experiment at hand.
-Thank you

Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample. bold a. when using the shell method, the axis of the cylindrical shells is parallel to the axis of revolution. bold b. if a region is revolved about the y-axis, then the shell method must be used. bold c. if a region is revolved about the x-axis, then in principle it is possible to use the disk/washer method and integrate with respect to x or the shell method and integrate with respect to y.
