Question

Use the graph to identify the following.

Rate of Change

(2 points)
The slope of the function is m=.

The equation can be written as y= where x represents time in hours and y represents distance.

Answer 1

To determine the rate of change (slope) of a function from a graph, you would typically identify two points on the line and use the slope formula:

\[
m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
\]

Where:
- \( (x_1, y_1) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) \) are two points on the line.

Without the specific graph, I cannot calculate the slope directly. However, if you provide two points or other details from the graph, I can help you compute the slope.

The equation of the line can then be written in the slope-intercept form:

\[
y = mx + b
\]

Where \( m \) is the slope you calculated, and \( b \) is the y-intercept (the value of \( y \) when \( x = 0 \)).

Please provide the specific points or details from the graph so I can assist you further!
