Find the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 1/x-2 between the given points x = 4 and x = 8​

Mathematics

Sedbober [7]2 years ago

If <em>f(x)</em> = 1/<em>x</em> - 2, then the average rate of change between <em>x</em> = 4 and <em>x</em> = 8 is

(<em>f</em> (8) - <em>f</em> (4)) / (8 - 4) = ((1/8 - 2) - (1/4 - 2)) / 4 = -1/16

If you meant <em>f(x)</em> = 1/(<em>x</em> - 2), then it would be

(<em>f</em> (8) - <em>f</em> (4)) / (8 - 4) = (1/(8 - 2) - 1/(4 - 2)) / 4 = (1/6 - 1/2) / 4 = -1/12

<em>Make sure to check which one is the correct function!</em>
