Question

What is the rate of change of the linear relationship modeled in the table?

x y
1 2
3 5
5 8
7 11

negative three over two
two over three

three over two

Answer 1

The rate of change, or slope, is m=y/x.
The change in y over x.

From your table, "y" increases by 3 every time.
"x" increases by 2 every time.

So safe to say it's 3/2
