@Hero @phi @ilyautumn @amistre64 @CalebBeavers Thanks guys :)

Average rate of change of a function over a given interval $[a,b]$ is given by
$$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$$
Here, $a=0$ and $b=1$.

Well I'm not going to give you the answer. You have what you need to find it for yourself.

Siths explained how to do it.

in your expression, replace x with 1  to find f(1)
replace x with 0 to find f(0)
the top will be f(1) - f(0)
