What does the term 'rate of change' refer to in mathematics?

Back

The rate of change refers to how much a quantity changes in relation to another quantity, often represented as the slope of a line.

What is the slope of a line that rises 3 units for every 2 units it runs?

Back

Front

Given the table, if the change in y is 8 and the change in x is 2, what is the slope?

Back

Front

Which of the following are ways to find the rate of change?

Back

All of the above: change in y over change in x, rise over run, subtract y coordinates over subtract x coordinates.

Front

Given the ordered pair (2, 3), which is y_2?

Back

y_2 is 3.

Front

What is the slope of a line if the coordinates of two points are (2, 3) and (4, 7)?

Back

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

An undefined slope indicates that the line is vertical.
