Answer: The constant rate change would be
(1)/(9).

Step-by-step explanation: The general rate of change can be found by using the difference quotient formula. To find the average rate of change over an interval, enter a function with an interval: f (x) =
x^(2) , [2,3]

Write y =
(1)/(9)x - 20 as a function which is f (x) =
(1)/(9)x - 20

Consider the difference quotient formula which is
(f (x +h) - f (x) )/(h).

Find the components of the definition.
\frac{f (x+h) = (h)/(9) + (x)/(9) - 20}simplify then it would be
\frac{f (x) = (x)/(9) - 20 }.

Lastly plug in all the components.


(f (x + h) - f (x))/(h) = ((h)/(9) +(x)/(9) - 20 - ((x)/(9) - 20) )/(h)

After solving all this the answer would be
(1)/(9)

Answer:

like:-

1/9x20 = 2 2/9

1/9-20 = 19 8/9
