Average rate of change =7
y=7x-8

Explanation:

For the function y = f(x) between x = a, and x = b, the
mathbitsnotebook.com

f(x)=2x^2-3x
f(a)=2-3=-1, when color(white)(aa)a=1

f(b)=32-12=20, when color(white)(aa)b=4

a=1, f(a)=-1; b=4, f(b)=20

Average rate of change =(f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)= (20-(-1))/(4-1)
=21/3=7

y=mx+c; to find c,
-1=(7*1)+c
c=-8

The function is
y=7x-8
