Pick an x-value between the interval givens. I’ll choose “1”. If you sub in one for both f(x) and g(x) you get that f(1) = -1.5 and g(1) = -0.5. Now you can divide f(1) by g(1) to get average rate of change. -1.5/-0.5 = 3.
To answer this question, you would divide the total by 3 to find the money that Mo gave. so 280/3= $93.33. I would check my math, just to be safe, however, I hope this helps you out.
