MEDAL pls check this!!
what is the rate of change of function 1?
Notice that the graph of Function 1 is a horizontal line. What is its slope?
theres no slope @mathmale so 0?
Actually, you definitely do have a slope, which in this case happens to be zero. Now look at the 2nd function. What's the slope of that?
2?
yes
thanks @zarkon ... am i correct ? is it 1 or 2 for the answer?
Please re-read the original question. You were asked to compare the two "rates of change" or "slopes." Could you do that now?
the slope in the first one is 0, and the slope in the second is two i believe @mathmale @mathmale
Yes, and so the only answer to the question you've posted is "the slope of the 2nd function is 2, whereas the slope of the first is 0." Just as you got it.
