Respuesta :

Space

Answer:

1st Option

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change formula: [tex]\frac{f(a) - f(b)}{a-b}[/tex]

Simply plug in 8 as a and 6 as b.

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Δy /Δx = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = [g(x2) - g(x1)]/(x2 - x1)

[g(x2) - g(x1)]/(x2 - x1) =[g(8) - g(6)]/(8 - 6) =[tex]\frac{[-8^{2}-4(8)]-[-6^{2}-4(6)]}{8-6}[/tex]
