Answer:

The rate of change of function is: 2

Explanation:

Using the given table we have to exclude two pairs of input and output.

The rate of change or slope of function is given as:


m = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

We take first two pairs of input/output from the table

(x1,y1) = (1,11)

(x2,y2) = (2,13)

Putting the values


m = (13-11)/(2-1)\\m =(2)/(1)\\m = 2

Hence,

The rate of change of function is: 2
