The formula to calculate the average rate of change of a function F(x) is:
In this case, F(x) =
a=2 and b=4
You have to evaluate x=2 (which is a in the formula) and x=4 (which is b in the formula) in the function.
In order to obtain F(b) and F(a) you have to replace x=4 and x=2 in the given function:
F(b) =
F(a) =
The answer is 8.
