Answer:

Rate Of Change= 7

Explanation:

all you have to do is see the difference, imma make a table here first

x y

1 10

3 24

6 45

11 80

15 108

from 10 to 24 you add 14

from 1 to 3 you add 2

so y/x

14/ 2 = 7

check:

from 24 to 45 you add 21

from 3 to 6 you add 3

so y/x

21/3 = 7

From y/x your final answer will always be 7.

So the rate of change will be 7.

Hope this helped a little!
