question 61

Multiple Choice

• A) The average rate of change from \(x _ { 1 } = 1\) to \(x _ { 2 } = 3\) is 19 .
• B) The average rate of change from \(x _ { 1 } = 1\) to \(x _ { 2 } = 3\) is \(- 12\).
• C) The average rate of change from \(x _ { 1 } = 1\) to \(x _ { 2 } = 3\) is 6 .
• D) The average rate of change from \(x _ { 1 } = 1\) to \(x _ { 2 } = 3\) is \(- 15\).
• E) The average rate of change from \(x _ { 1 } = 1\) to \(x _ { 2 } = 3\) is 15 .
