Question

The average rate of change for a function is greater from x = 1 to x = 2 than from x=2 to x = 3. What type of function could it be? Select all that apply
A linear
B. quadratic
C. exponential​

Answer 1

Answer:

C. exponential

Exponential functions can exhibit rapid growth, and if the average rate of change is greater in the interval [1, 2], it suggests that the function is increasing at a faster rate in that range. Linear functions could also exhibit this behavior, but exponential functions are more likely to fit the description.
