Can someone please help me with this trigonometry problem?

OpenStudy (shinalcantara):

what's the problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hang on, I'm trying to post it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

if you compare the values of f(x) at x = 0 and pi/2 what do you think about the rate of change ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldn't it just me pi/2

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

for f(x) the change is 2 and for g(x) the change is 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about h(x)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

- both in the interval 0 to pi/2

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

so which is greatest rate of change g(x) or f(x)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

for h(x) work out uts value for x = 0 and x = pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if x is 0 it would be 5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@cwrw238

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you just tell me the answer with detailed steps?? Because I have a couple questions just like this and I need to know how to do them, but I have to move on so I can keep waiting..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

average rate of change of f(x) in the interval (a,b) is: f(b)-f(a)/b-a

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

x = 0 h(x) = 5 , x = pi/2 h(x) = 5

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

Chad123 has given you the formula for average rate of change

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for f(x) the interval is pi/2,2 plug in the values in the formula

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

so in the case of f(x) average rate of change = (2 - 0) / pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is g(x)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

yes
