- Find the average rate of change for each function over the given interval. y=x between x=1 and x=4arrow_forwardUse the table of values you made in part 4 of the example to find the limiting value of the average rate of change in velocity.arrow_forwardUse the total differential to approximate each quantity. Then use a calculator to approximate the quantity, and give the absolute value of the differences in the two results to 4decimal places. (1.922+2.12)13arrow_forward
