Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Average rate of change = [tex] \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} [/tex]
Where,
a = 0,
f(a) = f(0) = -2 (from the graph given)
b = 2,
f(b) = f(2) = 5 (from the graph)
Plug in the values
Average rate of change = [tex] \frac{5 - (-2)}{2 - 0} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{7}{2} [/tex]
= 3.5 ≈ 4 (approximated)
