The rate of change of the table can be found by calculating the difference in values of f(x) for successive values of x.
For example, the rate of change between x=1 and x=2 is:
f(2) - f(1) = 19 - 12 = 7
Similarly, the rate of change between x=2 and x=3 is:
f(3) - f(2) = 26 - 19 = 7
From this pattern, we can see that the rate of change between any two consecutive values of x is 7. Therefore, the rate of change of the table is 7.
what is the rate of change of the table below?
x,1,2,3,4,5,6
