standard_description: Represent transformations in the plane using, e.g., transparencies and geometry software; describe transformations as functions that take points in the plane as inputs and give other points as outputs. Compare transformations that preserve distance and angle to those that do not (e.g., translation versus horizontal stretch).
problem_activity: Problem 1
Given the graph below, over which interval is the average rate of change the greatest? Explain your reasoning.
[IMG]
a. Between
$${f(4)}$$
and
$${f(10)}$$
b.
$${10 \leq x \leq 15}$$
c. Between
$${(0,0)}$$
and
$${(4,11)}$$
d. From
$${x=0}$$
to
$${x=10}$$
Problem 2
The table below defines the relationship
$${y=f(x)}$$
.
Find the average rate of change from
$${f (0)}$$
to
$${f(5)}$$
.

Problem 3
You leave from your house at 12:00 p.m. and arrive to your grandmother’s house at 2:30 p.m. Your grandmother lives 100 miles away from your house.
What was your average speed over the entire trip from your house to your grandmother’s house?
