Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is
[tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]
Here [ a, b ] = [ - 2, 2 ] , then
f(b) = f(2) = 2(2)² + 2 + 5 = 8 + 2 + 5 = 15
f(a) = f(- 2) = 2(- 2)² + (- 2) + 5 = 8 - 2 + 5 = 11 , then
average rate of change = [tex]\frac{15-11}{2-(-2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{4}[/tex] = 1 → C
