The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) shifted 4 units to the right and 2 units down.D. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) shifted 4 units to the left and 2 units up.
The average rate of change is also known as the slope. If we are looking to find the average rate of change between x = -1 and x = 2, in order to find the slope between those 2 x values, we need the y's that go along with them. Fill in -1 for x in the function and solve for y: . That means that the coordinate is (-1, 0). Fill in 2 for x in the function and solve for y: . The coordinate there is (2, -3). Now we can set up the slope formula to find the average rate of change between those 2 points: . Therefore, the average rate of change between x = -1 and x = 2 is -1
