What is the average rate of change of f(x), represented by the graph, over the interval [-2, 2]?

Molodets [167]

To get the average rate of change (ARC) of f(x) over [x1, x2], we use the formula:
ARC = ( f(x2) - f(x2) ) / (x2 - x1)

From the graph
f(2) = 4
f(-2) = 4

Plugging in the values into the formula:
ARC = (4 - 4) / (2 - (-2) )
ARC = 0

The points connecting (-2,4) amd (2,4) is a horizontal line that is the rate of change is 0.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$9c^{8} -30c^{10} + 25c^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use formula (a-b)² = a² -2ab + b².

In our example a = 3c^4 and b = 5c^6

$(3c^{4} - 5c^{6})^{2} = [3c^{4} ]^{2} - 2*3c^{4} *5c^{6} + [5c^{6}]^{2}=\\=9c^{8} -30c^{10} + 25c^{12}$
