The rate of change between two points on a curve can be approximated by calculating the change between two points. Find the average annual rate of change in dollars per year in the value of the house. F a f -1 3 -1 2 5 8.
Establish the Initial and Final Values.
F b f 3 3 3 2 5 32. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. And you see very clearly that the slope here the rate of change of y with respect to x is negative 4. Lets set a -1 and b 3 so that a is the left side of the interval and b is the right side of the interval.
