How to find the average rate of change of a function

ANSWER

Average Rate of Change

EXPLANATION

To find the average rate of change of y=f(x) from x=a to x=b means finding the slope of the secant line joining the points

(a,f(a)) and (b,f(b))

The slope of the secant line joining these points is

This gives the average rate of change of the function.

step-by-step explanation:

0

option c) graph of line going through 1, 4 and 3, 10

step-by-step explanation:

let y equal to margo's coin collection

let x equal to number of years

at the begining x=0, y=1 → point=(x,y)→point=(0,1)

she adds 3 coins per year, then y=1+3x

at x=1, y=1+3(1)=1+3→y=4→point=(x,y)→point=(1,4)

at x=3, y=1+3(3)=1+9→y=10→point=(x,y)→point=(3,10)

the graph of line going through (1, 4) and (3, 10), then the option c is the correct.
