Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

From the graph given in the picture,

Function 1

Rate of change = Slope of the line

Slope of a line passing through two points
(x_1,y_1) and
(x_2,y_2) is,

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

Therefore, slope of the given line which is passing through (1, 2) and (-1, -2)will be,

Rate of change =
(2+2)/(1+1) = 2

Function 2

Equation of the line is,

y =
(1)/(2)x+7

By comparing this equation with slope-intercept form of the equation,

y = mx + b

Here m = rate of change Or slope of the linear function

Rate of change of function 2 =
(1)/(2)

Therefore, rate of change of function 1 is higher than function 2.

Option A will be the answer.
