The function y = f ( x ) y=f(x) is graphed below. Plot a line segment connecting the points on f f where x = 5 x=5 and x = 7. x=7. Use the line segment to determine the average rate of change of the function f ( x ) f(x) on the interval 5 ≤ x ≤ 7 5≤x≤7?

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

thats one
