Answer: 23.22


Explanation:

Given function:
f(x)=0.01(2)^x

At x=7


f(7)=0.01(2)^7=1.28

At x=14


f(14)=0.01(2)^(14)=163.84

We know that the rate of change from
x_1 to
x_2 of function is given by


=(f(x_2)-f(x_1))/(x_2-x_1)

Therefore, The rate of change of given function from x=7 to x=14


=(f(14)-f(7))/(14-7)\\\\=(163.84-1.28)/(14-7)\\\\=(162.56)/(7)\\\\=23.22

Therefore, the average rate of change from x = 7 to x = 14 for the given function is 23.22
