Given:

The points are (1,9.5), (2,12), (3,14.5), (4,17).

To find:

The rate of change in the expression.

Solution:

Clearly the value of y increasing with respect to x by a constant rate.

Formula of rate of change is


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Consider the any two points from the expression (1,9.5) and (2,12).


m=(12-9.5)/(2-1)


m=(2.5)/(1)


m=2.5

Therefore, the rate of change is 2.5.
