you can use the slope of the secant line through the points at x=0.8 and x=1.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That can be done by using the slope formula for 2 points:\[m = \frac{ y _{1} - y _{2} }{ x _{1} - x _{2} }\]Use f(x) values for ye x values of 0.8 and 1.2.

@loinx you need to let the student work out the problems. You can give them hints and help but not just answers.
