Q. Find the average rate of change of g(x)=9x2+14g(x) = 9x^2 + 14 between x=0x = 0 and x=hx = h, where h0h \neq 0.\newlineSimplify your answer. Your answer may be a number or an expression in terms of hh.
  1. Calculate g(x)g(x): Calculate g(x)g(x) at x=0x = 0 and x=hx = h.\newlineg(0)=9(0)2+14=14g(0) = 9(0)^2 + 14 = 14\newlineg(h)=9(h)2+14g(h) = 9(h)^2 + 14
  2. Find change: Find the change in g(x)g(x) over the change in xx.
    Change in g(x)g(x) = g(h)g(0)=(9h2+14)14=9h2g(h) - g(0) = (9h^2 + 14) - 14 = 9h^2
    Change in xx = h0=hh - 0 = h
  3. Calculate average rate: Calculate the average rate of change.\newlineAverage rate of change = (Change in g(x))/(Change in x)=9h2h=9h(\text{Change in } g(x)) / (\text{Change in } x) = \frac{9h^2}{h} = 9h
