Answer:
Explanation:
We can find the rate of change, or slope using this formula:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 = m
M = Slope
y2 and y1 = the y coordinates of the 2 chosen points on the graph
x2 and x1 = the x coordinates of the 2 chosen points on the graph
So, I chose the points:
(0,-3) and (-2,4)
y1: -3
y2: 4
x2: -2
x1: 0
(4) - (-3) / (-2) - (0) =
4 + 3 / -2 - 0
7/-2
-7/2 <--- Slope (or rate of change)
