Answer:

Average rate of change = 4/3

Explanation:

The formula for the average rate of change (AROC) is given by:

AROC = f(b) - f(a) / b - a

Thus, we have f(5) - f(2) / 5 - 2

The y-coordinate when x = 5 is 7 so this is our f(5) value.

The y-coordinate when x = 2 is 3 so this is our f(2) value.

Now we can find the AROC:

AROC = (7 - 3) / (5 - 2)

AROC = 4 / 3

Thus, the average rate of change from x = 2 to x = 5 is 4/3.
