The function y=f(x) is graphed below. What is the average rate of change of the function f(x) on the interval 5≤x≤7?

I can't see the graph you mention. To find the average rate of change on 5 ≤ x ≤ 7, use

average rate = [f(7) − f(5)] / (7 − 5) = [f(7) − f(5)] / 2.

Read the y-values at x = 5 and x = 7 from the graph, plug them into that formula, and simplify. For example, if the graph shows f(5) = 3 and f(7) = 7, the average rate = (7 − 3)/2 = 2.

If you post the graph or give the values f(5) and f(7), I’ll compute it for you.
