The average rate of change of a function f(x) over some interval [a, b] is the difference quotient,

$\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

which corresponds to the slope of the line connecting the points (a, f(a)) and (b, f(b)) in the graph of f(x).

Given f(x) = 3x² - x³ (correct me if I'm wrong, the exponents look cut off in your screenshot), the average rate of change on [1, 5] is

$\dfrac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1}=\dfrac{(3\cdot5^2-5^3)-(3\cdot1^2-1^3)}4 = \dfrac{75-125-3+1}4 = \boxed{-13}$

Let α represent the acute angle between the horizontal and the straight line from the plane to the station. If the 4-mile measure is the straight-line distance from the plane to the station, then
sin(α) = 3/4
and
cos(α) = √(1 - (3/4)²) = (√7)/4

The distance from the station to the plane is increasing at a rate that is the plane's speed multiplied by the cosine of the angle α. Hence the plane–station distance is increasing at the rate of
(440 mph)×(√7)/4 ≈ 291 mph
