Question

Does someone know how to find the Average rate of Change?

Answer 1

What is an approximate average rate of change of the graph from x = 3 to x = 5, and what does this rate represent?

Answer 2

HI!!

Answer 3

same as the slope of the line between \((3,f(3))\) and \((5,f(5))\)

Answer 4

i.e.
\[\frac{f(5)-f(3)}{5-3}\]

Answer 5

Hi Misty! so it'd be f(5)-f(3) over 2?

Answer 6

\[f(3)\] looks like \(120\)
\[f(5)\] is harder for me to read maybe \(60\)?

Answer 7

yeah over two

Answer 8

is it -30? @misty1212

Answer 9

yeah that is what i got

Answer 10
