Question

Rate of change 1,10, 3,14, 5,16

Answer 1

To find the rate of change between each pair of numbers, we need to determine the difference in the y-values divided by the difference in the x-values for each pair.

For the pair (1,10) and (3,14):
Rate of change = (change in y) / (change in x)
= (14 - 10) / (3 - 1)
= 4 / 2
= 2

For the pair (3,14) and (5,16):
Rate of change = (change in y) / (change in x)
= (16 - 14) / (5 - 3)
= 2 / 2
= 1

So, the rate of change for the given set of numbers is 2 and 1.
