To determine the rate of change of the linear function, we can find the difference in y-values divided by the difference in x-values for any two points on the line.
Let's consider the points (2.6, -6) and (3.2, 3).
The difference in y-values is: 3 - (-6) = 9
The difference in x-values is: 3.2 - 2.6 = 0.6
The rate of change, m, is then found by dividing the difference in y-values by the difference in x-values:
m = 9 / 0.6 = 15
Therefore, the rate of change of the linear function given by the table of values is m = 15.
