x

OpenStudy (freckles):

You need to find the function evaluated at -3 also find the function evaluated at 1 then use the slope formula to find the slope of the secant line (aka find the average rate of change)

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[\frac{f(-3)-f(1)}{-3-1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(-4)/ -4 ??

OpenStudy (freckles):

no (f(-3)-f(1))/-4

OpenStudy (freckles):

the formula isn't f(-3-1)/(-3-1)

OpenStudy (freckles):

it is (f(-3)-f(1))/(-3-1)

OpenStudy (aum):

What is your f(x) ?

OpenStudy (aum):

From the graph, what is the y value when x = -3? That will be f(-3) What is the y value when x = 1? That will be f(1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i still dont get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im at a loss
