Question

EMERGENCY

The graph represents function 1, and the equation represents function 2.

Function:

y = 8x + 12

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

Answer 1

The rate of change is 8 more for function 2 than it is for function 1.

Explanation:

Function 1 is a horizontal line, which has a slope of 0. Slope is the same as rate of change.

Function 2 has a slope of 8 (since it is the coefficient of x.

As a result, we know that function 2's rate of change is 8 higher than that of function 1.
