Question: Consider the graph of f(x) = 5x + 1. Explain how to find the average rate of change between x = 0 and x = 4. What is the average rate of change?

The average rate of change is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First plug in the x values.

y=5x+1

=(0)5+1

=1

y=5x+1

=(4)5+1

=21

Average rate of change = the change in the output divided by the change in the input.

Output change: 21-1=20

Input change: 4-0=4

20/4=5

let f (x ) is a function and c be a positive real number,   the graph of the function g (x ) = f (cx ) is represented as follows.

when, c > 1,   the function compresses it in the x - direction.

when, 0 < c < 1, the function stretches it.

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2.

the heighest power of x in g ( x ) = (9x )2 is 2, so the parent function is square function.

the equation of parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2 and the parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

so, the functions f and g have the following relationship.

g ( x ) = f ( 9x ).

compare the function g ( x ) = f ( 9x ) with g (x ) = f (cx ).

c = 9 ( > 1 ).

so, the function g (x ) = (9x )2 compresses it in the x - direction.
