@Sylph

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

remember that the rate of change is equivalent to the slope

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

so since the equation has a slope of 1, it is not greater

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

you can work through problems like this via process of elimination

OpenStudy (taygotunicorns):

ok

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

then looking at the graph, the slope is negative. Therefore, the rate of change is definitely not bigger than the original, positive value

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

so what does that leave us with? :)

OpenStudy (taygotunicorns):

A,B,C

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

remember, I also eliminated the table

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

finally, let's calculate the slope of the table

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

we can see that for every value of x, y increases by 4. Therefore, the slope is 4. is this greater than 3?

OpenStudy (taygotunicorns):

yes

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

so there you go! Does that make sense?

OpenStudy (taygotunicorns):

yea

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

great! glad I could help :)

OpenStudy (taygotunicorns):

can you help me with a few more justso i can see if i full understand it

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

Unfortunately, I must go. But I have some friends who would be glad to help you :) Just be sure to open a new question
