Solution
given f(x)=x2-8x+6
a) average rate of change of f(x) from -3 to -2 is=(f(-2) -f(-3))/(-2-(-3))
average rate of change of f(x) from -3 to -2 is=(((-2)2-8(-2)+6) -((-3)2-8(-3)+6))/(-2-(-3))
average rate of change of f(x) from -3 to -2 is=(26-39)/(1)
average rate of change of f(x) from -3 to -2 is =-13
b) average rate of change of f(x) from -1 to 2 is=(f(2) -f(-1))/(2-(-1))
average rate of change of f(x) from -1 to 2 is=(((2)2-8(2)+6) -((-1)2-8(-1)+6))/(2-(-1))
average rate of change of f(x) from -1 to 2 is=(-6-15)/3
average rate of change of f(x) from -1 to 2 is= -7
c) average rate of change of f(x) from 2 to 3 is=(f(3) -f(2))/(3-2)
average rate of change of f(x) from 2 to 3 is=(((3)2-8(3)+6)-((2)2-8(2)+6))/(3-2)
average rate of change of f(x) from 2 to 3 is=(-9-(-6))/(1)
average rate of change of f(x) from 2 to 3 is=-3
