HELP PLEASEEEE> NEED HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The graph represents function 1, and the equation represents function 2:


Function 2
y = 5x + 4

How much more is the rate of change of function 2 than the rate of change of function 1?

2

3

4

5

The rate of change of the second function would be five because it's in the equation form y=mx+b, the m-or rate of change-is five. The equation for the graph would be y=3. It has zero for the m therefore it has no rate of change. This means that the rate of change is five more.

function 1 :
you have a horizontal line...and rhe rate of change (slope) of a horizontal line is 0.

function 2 :
y = 5x + 4....in y = mx + b form, the rate of change (slope) will be in the m position. Therefore, the rate of change in this one is 5.

difference being : 5 - 1 = 4
