In your situation you said that
Putting those together, you'd have
because
.
To evaluate the difference quotient, first find each piece on it's own:
because
no matter what your x-value is.
So putting those together:

Remember that the difference quotient is basically finding the slope of something. Since you were given that the slope is 0, the difference quotient should work out to match that.
Distance around a circle is CIRCUMFERENCE
DIAMETER*PI=CIRCUMFERENCE
-x + -x-1 + -x-2 = -204
-3x=-201
x=-67
-67-68-69=-204
It is certainly possible for a function decreasing over a certain interval to be negative, but no rule that says it must be. On the other hand, where the function is decreasing, the rate of change of the function must be negative.
