Question

y = 8x + 12

How much more is the rate of change of function 2 than the rate of change of function 1?

Answer 1

so if you don't mind me asking are you trying to figure out slope or what because I know the y=8x+12 is slope intersept form but idk what the second part is asking?

Answer 2

a line like those y=mx+b
'rate of change' is another way of saying 'slope'
how fast is y changing per unit change in x

Answer 3

what are the slopes of both of those, equation and the graph?

Answer 4

function 1 is the picture and function 2 is the equation @DanJS @timothywhitaker

Answer 5

slope is change in y/change in x for 2 points on the line
notice the horizontal line in the graph gives you

slope= 0/(some number), since y doesnt change, so that slope is 0/# = 0

Answer 6

the equation is in form y=m*x+b, where m is the slope, or rate of change

Answer 7

so the slope will be 0/1 ? @DanJS
