Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the rate of change is:

Rate\ of\ change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

The interval is [1,5]

So, a = 1 and b=5

f(1) = 17 - (1)^2\\ =17-1\\=16\\f(5) = 17-(5)^2\\=17-25\\=-8

Putting in the values

Rate\ of\ change = \frac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1} \\=\frac{-8-16}{5-1}\\= \frac{-24}{4}\\ =-6

The average rate of change is -6 ..

What is your opinion that we should raise the drinking/smoking ages to 21?
timofeeve [1]
In my opinion the ages for drinking/smoking should not be raised to 21. While I am not a fan of either and they almost never lead to good things, it just seems odd to me that a person can fight for his country at 18, but can't smoke or drink.

yuradex [85]
The correct answer is -1 and 1/2.

First, you need to divide 1/2 by -4/5. To do this, you multiply 1/2 by -5/4. You will get -10/8.

Then, you add -10/8 with -2/8 to get -12/8, or -1 and 1/2.
