The curve begins at approximately left parenthesis negative 3.5 comma 15 right parenthesis. It curves downward passing through the approximate points left parenthesis negative 3 comma 12 right parenthesis and left parenthesis negative 2 comma 6 right parenthesis to turn upward at left parenthesis 1.5 comma negative 2.5 right parenthesis. The curve passes through the plotted point left parenthesis 2 comma negative 2 right parenthesis then passes through the approximate points left parenthesis 4 comma 3 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 5 comma 8 right parenthesis before passing through the plotted point left parenthesis 6 comma 14 right parenthesis. The curve ends at approximately left parenthesis 6.2 comma 15 right parenthesis.

Quadratic average rate = (14 − (−2)) / (6 − 2) = 16/4 = 4.

For the exponential y = (3/4)·2^x: f(2) = 0.75·4 = 3, f(6) = 0.75·64 = 48, so average rate = (48 − 3)/4 = 45/4 = 11.25.

Difference = 11.25 − 4 = 7.25.

So: The estimated average rate of change of the exponential function is 7.25 greater than the estimated average rate of change of the quadratic function over [2,6].
