Question 865156: find the average rate of change for the funchtion f(x)=3x^2 on the interval [-3,3]
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
f(x) = 3x^2

f(-3) = 3(-3)^2

f(-3) = 3(9)

f(-3) = 27

f(x) = 3x^2

f(3) = 3(3)^2

f(3) = 3(9)

f(3) = 27

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Average Rate of Change = (f(b) - f(a))/(b-a)

Average Rate of Change = (f(3) - f(-3))/(3-(-3))

Average Rate of Change = (27-27)/(3-(-3))

Average Rate of Change = (27-27)/(3+3)

Average Rate of Change = 0/6

Average Rate of Change = 0

So the final answer is 0
