Answer:

The average rates of change are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Avg. ROC, you have to add up the total height changes (+17-4+11-5-3) and divide by total time interval (t=30). For both, the total height change is 16/30= Avg Roc. Therefore, the answer is A) The average rates of change are equal.
