the function g(x) = 6x + 2 models the number of leaves on a plant x weeks after being planted, which of the following accurately calculates the average rate of change in leaves between weeks 6 and 10? (1 point) f(b)-f(a) b-a = m-33 10-6 =6 leares; f(b)+f(a)=62+38=100 leaves; f(b)+f(a) b-a = 0+38 10-6 =25 leaves; f(b)-f(a) b4c = m-38 10*6 =1.5 leaves

Answer 1

Calculation:

g(10) = 6(10) + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62 leaves
g(6) = 6(6) + 2 = 36 + 2 = 38 leaves

Average rate of change = (g(10) - g(6))/(10 - 6)
= (62 - 38)/(10 - 6)
= 24/4
= 6 leaves per week

Therefore, the correct calculation is 6 leaves per week.
