*HELP FOR 25 POINTS!! *

A graph shows Number of Bushels on x-axis and Price of Corn in dollars on y-axis. The x-axis scale is shown from 0 to 14 at increments of 2, and the y-axis scale is shown from 0 to 112 at increments of 16. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 2, 16 and 4, 32 and 6, 48 and 8, 64 and 10, 80 and 12, 96.

What is the rate of change? How do you find it on a graph like this?

take any 2 points, so we'll us (2,16) and (4,32)

then do y2-y1/x2-x1

so 32-16=16
4-2×2
so then do rise(y) over run(x)
so the slope is 16/2 which simplifies to 8
so the rate of change is
y=8x
