ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Average rate of change = (change in y) / (change in x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay...

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

change in x = 2-0 = 2 change in y = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

not exactly...

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

when x = 0, y = 2 when x = 2, y = -6 ---------------------------

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So, change in x = 2-0 = 2 change in y = -6-2 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay! -8?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes, take the ratio... for average rate of change !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it -4 or 4?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Average rate of change = (change in y) / (change in x) = -8/2 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
