Be able to explain how average rate of change of a function corresponds to the secant line on a Cartesian plot of that function.
  • What is a secant line?
  • What is AROC or average rate of change and how do you find it?
  • How do you draw an average rate of change line for a curve?
  • How do you find the slope of the secant line from the beginning to the end of a curve?
This lesson explains average rate of change from the beginning to the end of a time period for the graph of a relation. The average rate of change graph is a line with constant velocity or slope. This concept is explained very well and has many different resources to supplement the video.
