What is the average rate of change of over the interval [1,6]?

34

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

Here [ a, b ] = [ 1, 6 ], thus

f(b) = f(6) = 6³ - 9(6) = 216 - 54 = 162

f(a) = f(1) = 1³ - 9(1) = 1 - 9 = - 8

average rate of change = = = 34

a function could be identified in 3 ways either on a chart,graph, or ordered pairs. first a function is that each point has its own. the rule is that there can be many x's to one y but there can not be 2 x's at different y's. so on a graph when you put a straight line through the y's there should be one dot only to be a function.
