Question

What is the average rate of change for this quadratic function for the interval from x= -4 to x= -2

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

just took on A P E X

Answer 2

B. 6.

Explanation:

We have been given graph of a function. We are asked to find the average rate of change of our given function for the interval from
`x=-4` to
`x=-2`.

We will use formula
`\text{Average rate of change}=(f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)` to solve our given problem.

`\text{Average rate of change}=(f(-2)-f(-4))/(-2--4)`

`\text{Average rate of change}=(6--6)/(-2+4)`

`\text{Average rate of change}=(6+6)/(2)`

`\text{Average rate of change}=(12)/(2)`

`\text{Average rate of change}=6`

Therefore, the average rate of change for our given function on given interval would be 6 and option B is the correct choice.
