How do you find the average rate of change of #f(x)=2x^2+2# from -1 to 1? Calculus Derivatives Average Rate of Change Over an Interval 1 Answer Alan P. Mar 18, 2017 Average Rate of Change: #color(green)(0)# Explanation: Since #f(-1)=f(1)# the amount of change is #0# #rarr # average rate of change is #0# (sometimes the rate is negative and sometimes it's positive, but in the end the average is 0).
