Respuesta :
The rate of change is the slope, the "rise over run."
In this graph, you have a point at (-4,-1) and another at (-1,-2).
The rise from left-to-right is -1, because you have to drop down 1 unit in height.
The run from left-to-right is 3, because you have to go 3 units to the right.
Putting that together, you have the slope is -1/3.
Answer:
- -1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the graphed is the line, its slope is the rate of change.
Take two points and find the slope.
The points:
- (-4, -1) and (2, -3)
The slope:
- m = (-3 -(-1))/ (2 - (-4)) = -2/6 = -1/3
