Select the correct answer. if f(x)=x^3-x , what is the average rate of change of f(x) over the interval [1, 5]?

average rate of change  = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

the average rate of change of  f ( x)

over an

interval between 2 points is the slope of the secant

line connecting the 2 points

It is calculated as

Average rate of change  = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a function.

f(x) = x³-x

[a,b] = [1,5]

We have to calculate the average rate of change of f(x) over the given interval.

The formula to calculate the average rate of change of function is :

Average rate of change  = f(b) - f(a)  / (b-a)

f(b) = f(5) = (5)³-5

f(b) = f(5) = 125-5

f(b) = f(5) = 120

f(a) = f(1) = (1)³-1

f(a) = f(1) = 1-1

f(a) = f(1) = 0

Putting values in formula, we have

Average rate of change  = 120-0 / 5-1

Average rate of change  = 120/4

Average rate of change  = 30 which is the answer.

the answer is the option b

the range is all real numbers

step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the absolute value parent function is equal to

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

so

a. it is v-shaped > is true

b. the range is all real numbers > is not true

because the range is the > [0,∞)

all real numbers greater than or equal to zero

c. it goes through the origin > is true

d. the domain is all real numbers > is true
