rate of change = change in y / change in x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
OpenStudy (gorv):
y=1 to y=4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I see well gorv explanation is pretty spot on do you understand it?

rate = change in coodinate
\[rate=\frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im confused can u guys help me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sure so do you understand when he said that rate is the change between y/x?
OpenStudy (gorv):
we have to find rate of change ....so can u tellme what is changing here??

OpenStudy (anonymous):
he seems to be helping yoonjae so i'll help you
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes you basically find the change in y and divide it by the change in x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hmm

what is a rate
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its the rate of change of a reduced ratio
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Correct, a very textbook answer I might add. So we need to find the rate of change, as gorv said before what is changing?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
mmm the x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
as well as the y right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
1 and 4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which is a change of...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
o and 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):
no I mean the a change from 1 to 4 is a change of 3 right since 4-1 = 3.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ooh ok yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so for x that change is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
really I thought it was 2?
