Answer:

unit rat: -1/2 or -0.5

Explanation:

Unit rate is basically the rate at which our output changes.

Here unit rate should be the slope of these points.


\sf slope: (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

  • where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are our coordinates.

Here consider two points from the table: (-2, 3) and (2, 1)


\rightarrow \sf slope: (1-3)/(2-(-2)) =(-2)/(4)=-(1)/(2)
