PLEASE HELPMatch each interval with its corresponding average rate of change for the graph shown below.1. 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 -0.375 2. -2 ≤ x ≤ -1 -1.5 3. -2 ≤ x ≤ 0 -0.5 4. 1 ≤ x ≤ 2 -0.25 5. -1 ≤ x ≤ 0 -2 6. 0 ≤ x ≤ 2 -1

Question
Answer:
It is convenient to work with pairs of points on the graph from right to left.Between 1 and 2, the graph goes over 4 and down 1, so the slope is -1/4Between 0 and 1, the graph goes over 4 and down 2, so the slope is -2/4 = -1/2We can see a trend here. For each unit interval farther to the left, the slope doubles. So, we have ...1 ≤ x ≤ 2 : -0.250 ≤ x ≤ 1 : -0.5-1 ≤ x ≤ 0 : -1-2 ≤ x ≤ -1 : -2The average slope over the longer intervals will be the average of the slopes in the (same length) intervals that make up the longer interval.-2 ≤ x ≤ 0 : average of -2 and -1, so -1.50 ≤ x ≤ 2 : average of -0.5 and -0.25, so -0.375_____Going by the numbers on your list here, the matching (interval, slope) pairs are ... (1, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (4, 4), (5, 6), (6, 1)
