Mrs.Rivenell says that the average rate of change between x = -6 and x = -3 for the function; f(x) = (3x-2)(x+5) / x^2+6x+5 is 0.5.
Mr. Blakely, disagrees. With whom do you side and why?

It helps to note that f(x) = (3x-2)/(x+1)
but f(-5) is undefined.
Luckily, it's just a point discontinuity, not an asymptote.
So, the average rate of change is
(f(-3)-f(-6))/(-3-(-6)) = (11/2 - 4)/3 = 1/2
