HELP!!!!! 50 POINTS!!

Given the function f(x) = 4(2)x, Section A is from x = 1 to x = 2 and Section B is from x = 3 to x = 4.

Part A: Find the average rate of change of each section.

Part B: How many times greater is the average rate of change of Section B than Section A? Explain why one rate of change is greater than the other.

Answer 1

Basically here all you want to do it substitute the values x=1 and x=2 for the given function. Use your slope formula
`m=(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1)  )`.

Do same for x=3 and x=4

You next divide plug in values in to this expression:

`(Slope  of  B)/(Slope  of  A)`
