Calculate the average rate of change for the graphed sequence from n = 1 to n = 5. (2 points) graphed sequence showing point 1, 2, point 2, 5, point 3, 8, point 4, 11, point 5, 14, and point 6, 17 a. 2 b. 3 c. 4 d. 9

option B. 3

Explanation:

The average rate of change only takes into account the starting point and the end point.

For n = 1 to n = 5, the end point is (5, 14) and the starting point is (1, 2).

The formula is:

                                           change on the output     
average rate of change = =
                                           change on the input            
 
      end output - starting output         14 - 2     12      
=  =     =  = 3
      end input - starting input              5 - 1        4

option B. 3

No a triangle cannot be formed because when you add the two smallest number together (which would be 11) the have to be bigger than the number it is "against" ( which would be 12)
