Question

This table shows values that represent an exponential function. What is the average rate of change for this function for the interval from x=3 to x=5? a. 8 b. 12 c. 6 d. 16

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = 3, y = 13

When x = 5, y = 37

Subtract both y-values to find the change:

37 - 13 = 24

Average of the change:

$\frac{24}{2}$ = 12
