H1 = 1 * TAN(16deg) [Mi]
H2 = 1 * TAN(74deg) [Mi]

Delta H = H2 - H1 = TAN(74deg) - TAN(16deg) = 3.49 - 0.29 = 3.2 [Mi]

Find the average rate of change over the interval [-1,2] (from x = -1 to x = 2) for the graph below
Lyrx [107]

Hello!

Find the coordinate where x = -1:

At x = -1, y = 1, so the coordinate is (-1, 1).

Find the coordinate where x = 2:

At x = 2, y = -2, so the coordinate is (2, -2).

Find the rate of change between the points using the slope formula:

slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Plug in the coordinates above:

slope = \frac{-2-1}{2-(-1)}

Simplify:

slope = \frac{-3}{3} = -1

Thus, the rate of change between the points is -1.
