The Solution.

Given the function below:


f(x)=(1)/(x+9)\text{ and the interval \lbrack{}10,10+h\rbrack}

The average rate of change in the given interval is


\text{Average rate of change}=(f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)

In this case,


a=10,b=10+h

So,


f(a)=f(10)=(1)/(10+9)=(1)/(19)
f(b)=f(10+h)=(1)/(10+h+9)=(1)/(19+h)

Substituting in the formula, we have


\text{Average rate of change =}((1)/(19+h)-(1)/(19))/(10+h-10)
\begin{gathered} \text{Average rate of change =}((19-(19+h))/(19(19+h)))/(h)=(-h)/(19h(19+h))=(-1)/(19(19+h)) \\ \end{gathered}

So, the correct answer is


(-1)/(19(19+h))
