Question
If y = f (x) and x changes from x1 to x2, write expressions for the following.
(a) The average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval [x1, x2]
(b) The instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at x = x1
Solution
The first step in solving 2 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: If y = f (x) and x changes from x1 to x2, write expressions for the following.(a) The average rate of change of y with respect to x over the interval [x1, x2](b) The instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at x = x1
From the textbook chapter Limits and Derivatives you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
