The answer should be the third one
Answer:
The average rate of change is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
Answer:
15,235
Step-by-step explanation:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
- common denominator: (x² -4)
- simplified complex fraction: (2x +1)/(9 -2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is helpful to remember the factoring of the difference of squares:
a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)
__
Your denominator of (x² -4) factors as (x -2)(x +2). You will note that one of these factors is the same as the denominator in the other fraction.
It looks like you want to simplify ...
