¹) If a rock is thrown upward on the planet Mars with a velocity of 10m/s, its height in meters after x seconds if given by equation y = f(x) = 10x - 1.8x² a) Find average velocity of the rock from x = 1 to x = 2 seconds. AND Explain what this finds in context to the application with correct units. b) Find and simplify the difference quotient for the function y = f(x) = 10x - 1.8x² f(x +h)-f(x) h
