Answer 1

use the rate of change formula

f(1) - f(0) divided by (1-0)

Answer 2

f(1) = ?

Answer 3

f?

Answer 4

what is the value of the function when x = 1?

Answer 5

Idk >.<

Answer 6

look at the graph

look at where x = 1

then move up to the graph

then find the matching y value

Answer 7

3?

Answer 8

good

now what about when x = 0?

Answer 9

3? i think

Answer 10

go to the origin (where x = 0) then move down to the graph. what's the matching y value?

Answer 11

Oh -1

Answer 12

good so that gives us

(3 - (-1)) / (1-0) = ?

Answer 13

4?

Answer 14

good so 4 is your answer

Answer 15

Yay :D
