In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.
Step 01:
Data
Table
Step 02:
average rate of change
[tex]average\text{ = }\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}\text{ = }\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex][tex]\text{average = }\frac{23-71}{6-0}=\frac{-48}{6}=-8[/tex]
The answer is:
The average rate of change is - 8
