The function with the greatest average rate of change is the function k(x)
<h3>How to determine the function?</h3>The average rate of change is calculated as
The interval is [0,2].
So, we have
For function j(x), we have
j(2) = 3 * 1.6^2 = 7.68
j(2) = 3 * 1.6^0 = 3
So, we have
For function g(x), we have
g(2) = 25/2
g(0) = 8
So, we have
For function k(x), we have
k(2) = 9
k(0) = 4
So, we have
For function f(x), we have
f(2) = 1.5 * 2^2 = 6
f(0) = 1.5
So, we have
The function with the greatest average rate of change is the function k(x) with a rate of 2.5
