Move 5 units to the left, then 7 units down
Answer:
The equation to be used is 4/8 × 8/12=1/3
The idea is to use the tangent line to
at
in order to approximate
.
We have


so the linear approximation to
is

Hence
and
.
Then

Answer:
[f(2) - f(-1)]/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The table is incomplete, so I will answer the question in general terms. The rate of change between f(-1) and f(2) is computed as follows:
rate of change = [f(2) - f(-1)]/[2 - (-1)] = [f(2) - f(-1)]/3
To complete the calculation you need to replace the values of the function at x = 2 and x = -1, and compute the result.
The slope will be 4/7. Let me know if you want an explanation.
Answer: 4/7
Hope this helped!
