Question

Using the graph below, calculate the average rate of change for f(x) from x = 2 to x = 6.

exponential function going through points 2, 2 and 6, 6

Answer 1

\(\sf \Large avg.\ rate = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)

Answer 2

where \(\sf (x_1, y_1)\) and \(\sf (x_2, y_2)\) are your given points.

Answer 3

\(\sf (x_1, y_1) = (2,2)\)

\(\sf (x_2, y_2)=(6,6)\)

Answer 4

plug them in the formula and you'll get it (:
