Question

Find the average rate of change of a function that contains the points (-2,3) and (2,5).

Answer 1

The slope or rate of change would be 1/2

Answer 2

Answer: The average rate of change is
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Two points are given below:

(-2,3) and (2,5)

As we know that Average rate of change of function = Slope of line passing through (-2,3) and (2,5)

So, Slope of line is given by

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(5-3)/(2+2)=(2)/(4)=(1)/(2)`

Hence, the average rate of change is
`(1)/(2)`
