Question

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​

Answer 1

Function: 2 is 5 greater than function 1

Answer 2

function 1 : horizontal line....a horizontal line has a rate of change (slope) = 0

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

function 2 is 5 greater then function 1
