Question

1
Given the function f(x) = -22 - 2x + 5, determine the average rate of change of
the function over the interval -3 < x < 3.​

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

f（x）=-22-2x+5=-17-2x

when x=-3, f（x）=-11;

when x=3, f（x）=-23;

then the rate of change is：

[-23-（-11）]/[3-（-3）]=-2
