Answer:  Choice A) 180

======================================================

Work Shown:

f(x) = 3^x

a = 2 = lower value of the interval

b = 6 = upper value of the interval

c = average rate of change of f(x) from a to b

c = ( f(b) - f(a) )/(b - a) ..... note how this mimics the slope formula

c = ( f(6) - f(2) )/(6 - 2)

c = ( 3^6 - 3^2 )/4

c = ( 729 - 9 )/4

c = 720/4

c = 180

The average rate of change from x = 2 to x = 6 for f(x) = 3^x is 180
