Question

Identify the initial value and rate of change for the graph shown.

A coordinate plane graph is shown. A line is graphed that passes through the y-intercept at 4 and through the point 4 comma 1.

Initial value: 5.5, rate of change: negative 3 over 4.
Initial value: 4, rate of change: negative 3 over 4.
Initial value: negative 3 over 4., rate of change: 4
Initial value: negative 3 over 4., rate of change: 5.5

Answer 1

Initial value 4 rate of change is negative 3 over 4

Explanation:

Formula to use: y2-y1 over x2-x1 initial value coordinate: 0,4 Crosses thru coordinate: 4,1 1 minus 4 and 4-0 gives you negative 3 over 4
