Answer:

D. The average rate of change is greater for interval D than for interval C because the line is increasing more quickly at interval D than at interval C.

Explanation:

The difference between C and D interval is the lowest.

This means that line is increasing more quickly at interval D as compared to others.

Therefore, option D is the right answer.
