Nov 18, 12:02:17 PM Gren the function defined in the table below, find the average rate of change, in silplest form, of the function over the interval 24 2 4 32 6 8 Answer:

Answer 1

First, we have to select the points which belong to the interval, they must be x1=2, y1 = 56 and x2=4, y2 = 32

Then we use the formula for the average rate, which is

`m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(32-56)/(4-2)=(-24)/(2)=-12`

The average rate would be -12
