1) Average rate of change is change in f(x) value divided by change in x values.   

This is the gradient of the line joining the end points.

 

Please no one answer further on question 1

No that is not correct.

 

Average rate of change from x=5 to x=9 is

 

\(\frac{f(9)-f(5)}{9-5}   \)

 

What is f(9) ?      What is f(5) ?    Look at the table. 

 

 

No one answer over the top of me please.  I'm trying to teach.

But f(9)=f(9) and f(5)=f(5)... not really understanding what you mean ://

F(9)=14        look at the table to see what I mean.

 

You have x on the first row and (x) on the second row.

When x=9 you look underneath the 9 to get the f(9) value.  It is 14.

 

 

Now you can tell me what f(5) is.
