Compare the rate of change for each function.40 21050 24060 27070300What is the rate of change for the equation y = 4x + 40?The rate of change is.What is the rate of change for the function in the table?The rate of change is.Compare the rate of change for each function. Choose the correct answer below.OA. The rates of change are equal

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate of change of the equation = 4

The rate of change for the function in the table = 30

The rate of change of the function in the table is greater than the rate of change of the equation

Explanation:

The given equation is:

y = 4x + 40........(1)

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is:

y = mx + c..............(2)

where m is the rate of change, and c is the y-intercept

Comparing the two equations:

The rate of change of the equation = 4

From the table:

The rate of change = (240 - 210)/(50 - 40)

The rate of change for the function in the table = 30

The rate of change of the function in the table is greater than the rate of change of the equation
