Average Rate of Change:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Interval -1 ≤ x ≤ 3

a = -1, b = 3

f(a) = f(-1) = 4

f(b) = f(3) = -4

Step 2: Find Average

Substitute in variables [ARC]:                     Substitute:                                                   [Fraction] Subtract/Add:                             [Fraction] Divide:                                        

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
