Question

The function f(x) is represented by this table of values.

Answer 1

Match the average rates of change of f(x) to the corresponding intervals.
x f(x)
-5 35
-4 24
-3 15
-2 8
-1 3
0 0
1 -1

-3, -7, -8, -4

[-5,-1]
[-4,-1]
[-3,1]
[-2,1]

Please help me! ive had multipule breakdowns throughout this assignment. i have tried to do this 8 times and i cannot get it right. i will FAN and MEDAL

Answer 2

So we have different intervals between each pair:

(-5,-1) up to (-4,-1)
interval: -5 to -4, hence, average is = (35 + 24)/2 = 59/2

(-4,-1) up to (-3,-1)
interval: -4 to -3, hence, average is = (24 + 15)/2 = 39/2

(-3,-1) up to (-2,-1)
interval: -3 to -2, hence, average is = (15 + 8)/2 = 23/2

Answer 3

Does that help, or?

Answer 4

do you divide 59/2? or 39/2? im sorry im afraid i still dont understand unfortunately

Answer 5

so does -8 match the first interval?

Answer 6

Yes, I believe you divide 59/2. is there by chance options to this question? it's been a long while since I have done one of these things.

Answer 7

no, im sorry when i divide it doesnt match up to any of the answers..

Answer 8

the options are
-7
-4
-3
-8

Answer 9

yeah, I see now, let me see if I can get someone who is smarter in here.

Answer 16

thank you so much for your time and effort

Answer 17

No problem.

Answer 18

First of all, please look up "average rate of change of a function on an interval," and then write out the formula here.

In this formula, let a=starting value of variable x; b=ending value of x, and f(x)=function value at x.

average value of function f(x) on interval [a,b]=? Please respond with the proper function.
