How much greater is the rate of change for Function 1 than the rate of change for Function 2?



____times greater

Answer 1

I can’t see the second function image — could you either upload it again or type the equation/points shown?

How to get the answer once you provide Function 2:
- The rate of change of a line y = mx + b is the slope m.
- Function 1 has slope 10.
- If Function 2 has slope m2, then Function 1’s rate of change is 10/m2 times as large.
- If the question means "how many times greater" in magnitude, use |10|/|m2|. (If m2 = 0 the ratio is undefined.)

Example: if Function 2 were y = 2x + 1, then 10/2 = 5, so Function 1’s rate is 5 times greater.

Send the second function and I’ll compute the exact number.
