Estimate the average rate of change from when x = 3.1 to when x = 5.89

1 answer

To find the average rate of change, we need to calculate the change in the function's value over the change in the input variable.

Let's assume the function is f(x) and the values at x = 3.1 and x = 5.89 are f(3.1) and f(5.89) respectively.

Average rate of change = (f(5.89) - f(3.1)) / (5.89 - 3.1)

Now we need actual values of f(5.89) and f(3.1) to calculate the average rate of change.
