Average rate of change help!!

Given that the function is

We need to determine the average rate of change over the interval

Value of f(x) when x = 0:

Substituting x = 0 in the function , we have;

Thus, the value of f(0) is 7.

Value of f(x) when x = 5:

Substituting x = 5 in the function , we have;

Thus, the value of f(5) is 2.

Average rate of change:

The average rate of change can be determined using the formula,

where and

Thus, we have;

Thus, the average rate of change over the interval is -1.
