Part A:
The average rate of change refers to a function's slope. Thus, we are going to need to use the slope formula, which is:

and
are points on the function
You can see that we are given the x-values for our interval, but we are not given the y-values, which means that we will need to find them ourselves. Remember that the y-values of functions refers to the outputs of the function, so to find the y-values simply use your given x-value in the function and observe the result:




Now, let's find the slopes for each of the sections of the function:
<u>Section A</u>

<u>Section B</u>

Part B:
In this case, we can find how many times greater the rate of change in Section B is by dividing the slopes together.

It is 25 times greater. This is because
is an exponential growth function, which grows faster and faster as the x-values get higher and higher. This is unlike a linear function which grows or declines at a constant rate.
The slope<span> of a horizontal </span>line<span>. A horizontal </span><span>line has slope 0
</span>
:<span> </span><span>You need to know the derivative of the sqrt function. Remember that sqrt(x) = x^(1/2), and that (d x^a)/(dx) = a x^(a-1). So (d sqrt(x))/(dx) = (d x^(1/2))/(dx) = (1/2) x^((1/2)-1) = (1/2) x^(-1/2) = 1/(2 x^(1/2)) = 1/(2 sqrt(x)).
There is a subtle shift in meaning in the use of t. If you say "after t seconds", t is a dimensionless quantity, such as 169. Also in the formula V = 4 sqrt(t) cm3, t is apparently dimensionless. But if you say "t = 169 seconds", t has dimension time, measured in the unit of seconds, and also expressing speed of change of V as (dV)/(dt) presupposes that t has dimension time. But you can't mix formulas in which t is dimensionless with formulas in which t is dimensioned.
Below I treat t as being dimensionless. So where t is supposed to stand for time I write "t seconds" instead of just "t".
Then (dV)/(d(t seconds)) = (d 4 sqrt(t))/(dt) cm3/s = 4 (d sqrt(t))/(dt) cm3/s = 4 / (2 sqrt(t)) cm3/s = 2 / (sqrt(t)) cm3/s.
Plugging in t = 169 gives 2/13 cm3/s.</span>
