Given that the function is
We need to determine the average rate of change over the interval 
<u>Value of f(x) when x = 0:</u>
Substituting x = 0 in the function
, we have;



Thus, the value of f(0) is 7.
<u>Value of f(x) when x = 5:</u>
Substituting x = 5 in the function
, we have;



Thus, the value of f(5) is 2.
<u>Average rate of change:</u>
The average rate of change can be determined using the formula,

where
and 
Thus, we have;




Thus, the average rate of change over the interval
is -1.
Answer:
(-1, -2.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
the midpoint of a segment is 
, given points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

We can solve this problem by using PEMDAS
