Function: h(x) = 2 ^ (-x)

In the table below is the complete calculation of the rate of change.

The last column has the resulting rate of chages for each interval.

Interval          change of h(x)                   change of x      rate of change

-2 ≤ x ≤ 0        2^0 - 2^(-(-2)) = -3            0 - (-2) = 2        - 3 / 2 = - 1.5000

0 ≤ x ≤ 2        2^(-2) - 2^0 = - 0.75           2 - 0 = 2             -0.75 / 2 = - 0.3750

-1 ≤ x ≤ 0      2^0 - 2(-(-1)) = - 1              0 - (-1) = 1          -1/1 = -1.0000

0 ≤ x ≤ 1      2^(-1) - 2^0 = - 0.5              1 - 0 = 1               -0.5 / 1 = -0.5000                 

-2 ≤ x ≤ -1   2^(-(-1)) - 2^(-(-2)) = -2        -1 - (-2) = 1          -2 / 1 = -2.0000

-2 ≤ x ≤ 2    2^(-2) - 2^(-(-2)) = -3.75       2 - (-2) = 4           -3.75/4 = -0.9375
