Question

How do you find the average rate change from x = -1 to x = 3

Answer 1

Well to begin, you'll need a graph but you have to do:

y2-y1

---------

x2-x1

(Which is the average rate of change formula.)

In order to find your "y" you look for your x on the graph the move either direction until you touch the graph. Hope this helps.. :)
