Given: the function


y=x^3

and x= 1 to 3.

Find: the average rate of change of given function.

Step-by-step explanation: At x=1 the valye of y=1

At x=3 the value of y =27

the average rate of change of a function is equal to


(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(27-1)/(3-1)=(26)/(2)=13

Final answer: the required answer is 13.
