If <em>f(x)</em> = 1/<em>x</em> - 2, then the average rate of change between <em>x</em> = 4 and <em>x</em> = 8 is
(<em>f</em> (8) - <em>f</em> (4)) / (8 - 4) = ((1/8 - 2) - (1/4 - 2)) / 4 = -1/16
If you meant <em>f(x)</em> = 1/(<em>x</em> - 2), then it would be
(<em>f</em> (8) - <em>f</em> (4)) / (8 - 4) = (1/(8 - 2) - 1/(4 - 2)) / 4 = (1/6 - 1/2) / 4 = -1/12

Answer:
a = kb
Step-by-step explanation:
"a is directly proportional to b" is expressed as a = kb, where k is the "constant of proportionality."
