Step 1
- The function values at the endpoints of the interval are f(-3) = -2.3 and f(-1) = -1.2. - The change in the function value over the interval is -1.2 - (-2.3) = 1.1. Show more…

Calculate the average rate of change of the given function over the given interval. Where appropriate, specify the units of measurement. HINT [See Example 1.] $$ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \boldsymbol{x} & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline \boldsymbol{f}(\boldsymbol{x}) & -1 & 3 & 2 & 1 \\ \hline \end{array} $$ $$ \text { Interval: }[0,2] $$
