What is the average rate of change for this function for the interval from x=2 to x=4 ?

Researchers were interested in whether relaxation training decreases the number of headaches a person experiences. they randomly assigned 20 participants to a control group or a relaxation training group and noted the change in number of headaches each group reported from the week before training to the week after training. which statistical analysis should be performed to answer the researchers' question?

A. plot the data for the functions f(x) and g(x) on a grid and connect the points. x -2 -1 0 1 2 f(x) 1/9 1/3 1 3 9 x -2 -1 0 1 2 g(x) -4 -2 0 2 4 b. which function could be described as exponential and which as linear? explain. c. if the functions continue with the same pattern, will the function values ever be equal? if so, give estimates for the value of x that will make the function values equals. if not, explain why the function values will never be equal.
