Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
option D

Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question an expression,

Step 1
Divide and multiple by
to remove radical sign from denominator.

Step 2
Apply a² - b² = (a+b)(a-b)

Step 3

Step 4

Step 5

To get the average rate of change (ARC) of f(x) over [x1, x2], we use the formula:
ARC = ( f(x2) - f(x2) ) / (x2 - x1)
From the graph
f(2) = 4
f(-2) = 4
Plugging in the values into the formula:
ARC = (4 - 4) / (2 - (-2) )
ARC = 0
The points connecting (-2,4) amd (2,4) is a horizontal line that is the rate of change is 0.
