To find the average rate of change of ( s(t) = t^3 + t ) over the interval ([2,4]), we use the formula:
[ \text{Average Rate of Change} = \frac{s(b) - s(a)}{b - a} ]
where ( a ) and ( b ) are the endpoints of the interval. Plugging in the values:
[ a = 2, \quad b = 4 ]
[ s(a) = (2)^3 + 2 = 10 ] [ s(b) = (4)^3 + 4 = 68 ]
[ \text{Average Rate of Change} = \frac{68 - 10}{4 - 2} = \frac{58}{2} = 29 ]

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
