Answer:
average = -9
lower than 5
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following formula:
[tex]G(t)=-(t-1)^2+5[/tex]
to calculate the average rate of change you first calculate the derivative:
[tex]\frac{dG}{dt}=-2(t-1)[/tex]
the interval of dG/dt for −4≤t≤5 is:
t = -4
[tex]\frac{dG}{dt}=-2(-4-1)=10[/tex]
t = 5
[tex]\frac{dG}{dt}=-2(5-1)=-8[/tex]
the average rate of change is :
[tex]average\ =\ \frac{-8-10}{2}=-9[/tex]
is lower that 5
