help :(

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf f(x)=4x^2+3x \qquad x=7 \quad ...\quad x=5\\ \quad \\ \textit{rate of change}=\cfrac{f(7)-f(5)}{3}\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

3 accounts for the values in the range, that is 7, 6 , 5 " 3 values"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where did the 3 come from?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
