Question

For the graphed exponential equation, calculate the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 3.

Answer 1

What else would you call "rate of change"?

Answer 2

oohhhh slope so 3/2?

Answer 3

Not quite. Think about the formula for slope, change in y over change in x.

Answer 4

not quite understanding

Answer 5

The slope is rise over run, in other words, change in y over change in x. To find the slope between two points, you divide the total rise by the total run

Answer 6

so 7/3?

Answer 7

That's right

Answer 8

can you help with this last one

Answer 9

\[\log_{10} x = y\] remember what this equation tells you: 10 to the power of y will give you x.

Answer 10

.60?

Answer 11

Right
