Problem 27

Let \(y=f(x)=x^{2}+x\). a. Find the average rate of change of \(y\) with respect to \(x\) in the interval from \(x=2\) to \(x=3\), from \(x=2\) to \(x=2.5\), and from \(x=2\) to \(x=2.1\). b. Find the (instantaneous) rate of change of \(y\) at \(x=2\). c. Compare the results obtained in part (a) with that of part (b).
