Question

Whats the average rate of change from x = - 3 to x = 5

Answer 1

0

Explanation:

Average rate of change from x = -3 to x = 5.

When x = -3, y = -1. That is f(-3) = -1

When x = 5, y = -1, That is f(5) = -1

Average rate of change =
`(f(b) - f(a))/(b - a)`

Where,

`a = -3, f(a) = -1`

`b = 5, f(b) = -1`

Plug in the values into the equation:

`= (-1 - (-1))/(6 -(-3))`

`= (0)/(8)`

`= 0`

Average rate of change = 0
