[tex]\bf slope = m = \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{ f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{ x_2 - x_1}\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} average~rate\\ of~change \end{array}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ f(x)= x^3-x \qquad \begin{cases} x_1=1\\ x_2=5 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1} \\\\\\ \cfrac{[5^3-5]~-~[1^3-1]}{4}\implies \cfrac{125-5~~-~~0}{4}\implies \cfrac{120}{4}\implies 30[/tex]
