Suppose that f(x)=4x^2 (a) What is the average rate of change of f(x) over each of the following intervals: 3 to 24 3 to 3.5, and 3 to 3.1?
Added by Dustin Y.
Step 1
To find the average rate of change of a function over an interval, we use the formula: Average rate of change = (f(b) - f(a)) / (b - a) where a and b are the endpoints of the interval. In this case, a = 3 and b = 24. So, the average rate of change of f(x) over Show more…
