Question

Function 1Y equals 4X plus 5 function 2 the line passing through the points (1, 6)and (3, 10) which of these functions has the. Greater rate of change

Answer 1

Function 1 has a rate of change of 4, meaning that for every increase of 1 in the x-value, the y-value increases by 4.

Function 2 has a rate of change of (10-6)/(3-1) = 2, meaning that for every increase of 1 in the x-value, the y-value increases by 2.

Therefore, function 1 has a greater rate of change than function 2.
