1. A table can be a helpful thing to model the rate of change. It can be used by making an x and y column and listing each number underneath it like so:
x y
1 2
2 4
And so on. The rate of change for that table would be every time the x axis goes up 1, the y axis goes up 2.
2. To find the rate of change using a graph, look at the line on the graph. You can make a small triangle that starts on the line and then comes out and re-connects into the line. Like so - (look at attached picture). And as you go, you count how many you go down or up and how many you go left or right.
*Hopefully this was helpful, sorry if t wasn't!
