By definition we have that the average rate of change of the function is:
Evaluating the function for the complete interval we have that the AVR is given by:
Rewriting we have:
Simplifying the expression we have:
Answer:
the average rate of change of the function defined by the table is:
Answer:
y=-3x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b is the formula you are going to end up once completed.
This, by given two points:
(4,-5) (3,-2)
= Point-Slope Intercept Form
= After subtracting both from above
-3 = is your slope, decreasing.
Substitute -3 for y=mx+b
y=-3x+b
Use one of the given points (any) to find what b equals.
(4,-5)
x y
-5=-3(4)+b
-5= -12+b
7=b
Final Equation:
y=-3x+7
