Question

The function y=f(x) is graphed below. What is the average rate of change of the function f(x) on the interval -3 ≤ x ≤ 6

Answer 1

Answer:

Average ROC = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Average ROC : (f(b) - f(a)) / (b - a)  ... slope = (y'-y) / (x'-x)

a = -3   f(a) = 10   ... x=-3, y=10

b = 6    f(b) = 10   ... x'=6, y'=10

Average ROC = (10 - 10) / (6 - -3) = 0 / 9 = 0
