To find the rate of change for each table, we can calculate the difference in y-values for each corresponding pair of x-values.
For Table 1, the rate of change is as follows:
(11 - 5) = 6 for x = 5 to x = 2
(13 - 11) = 2 for x = 6 to x = 5
(19 - 13) = 6 for x = 9 to x = 6
For Table 2, the rate of change is as follows:
(13 - 4) = 9 for x = 5 to x = 2
(16 - 13) = 3 for x = 6 to x = 5
(25 - 16) = 9 for x = 9 to x = 6
Therefore, the rate of change for Table 2 is greater than the rate of change for Table 1.
