question\nthe graph of a function is shown on the coordinate plane below. identify the rate of change of the function.
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Select two points on the line
Let's choose ((-2,0)) and ((0,-4))
Step2: Use the slope formula (m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1})
Here (x_1=-2,y_1 = 0,x_2=0,y_2=-4) [m=\frac{-4 - 0}{0-(-2)}=\frac{-4}{2}]
Answer:
(-2)
