Hello,
Slope is rise/run, or y/x, and if you are given two pairs of points, this is the equation needed: (y2-y1) over (x2-x1).
Let me plug in the numbers: (4-(-2) over 5-(-3). And that is 6/8, which then is simplified to 3/4. So the slope of those two given points is 3/4. We do not divide or simplify it into a decimal because slope is a fraction, so we leave 3/4 as it is.
Hope this helps, and that my explanation is not too confusing!

Answer:
The diameter would also double
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
We do not have the function g(x), but this can be solved in a trivial way.
The average rate of change in a interval is the slope over that interval, so the average rate of change of g(x) in the interval 1 < x < 5 is
p = (g(x2) - g(x1))/(x2 - x1) where x2 > x1
p = (g(5) - g(1))/(5 - 1) = (g(5) - g(1))/4
Now, suppose that i have the new equation h(x) = g(x) + x
the rate of change of this function, the average rate of change in the interval will be:
p' = (h(5) - h(1))/(5 - 1) = (g(5) + 5 - g(1) - 1)/4 = (g(5) - g(1))/4 + 4/4 = p +1
so p' > p
and the average rate of change of h(x) is bigger than the one of g(x) in the interval 1< x < 5
I this the answer you are looking for would probably be 47.7%.
hope this helps!!
