WILL MEDAL AND FAN PLEASE HELP The graph of f(x) = 2x + 1 is shown below. Explain how to find the average rate of change between x = 0 and x = 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find f(0) and f(2) by simply replacing all the x with 0 and 2. Afterwards, the average rate at which it changes is the change in f(x) divided by the change in x, which is 2-0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k so f(x) = 2(2) + 1 and f(x) = 2(0) + 1 f(2) = 6 f(0) = 1 ad then...? I got kinda lost

OpenStudy (anonymous):

beezle 2(2)+1= 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeahh... I figured that out after I posted it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but I don't understand the rest of what ManBear said

What are the points when x=0 and x=2?

OpenStudy (pandaecat):

After that solve using \[y2-y1/x2-x1\]

(0,1) (2,5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5-1/2-0
