IF CORRECT I WILL GIVE BRAINLYIST
Find the rate of change between the two ordered pairs (0,5) and (4,-10)
1/4
-3
-1/2
-5/4

Answer 1

Answer:

-3.75 but i would guess -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (-10 - 5) / (4 - 0) = -15 / 4 = -3.75

Answer 2

Answer:

$-\dfrac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

average rate of change of function f(x) between x = a and x = b

$\dfrac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

Here, a = 0; f(a) = f(0) = -5; b = 4; f(b) = f(4) = -10

$\dfrac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

$= \dfrac{-10 - (-5)}{4 - 0}$

$= \dfrac{-5}{4}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{4}$
