Answer:

zero

Explanation:

You want the rate of change between the points (3, 1) and (4, 1).

Rate of change

The "rate of change" is also known as the "slope" of the line between the points. That is given by the formula ...

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

For your points, this is ...

m = (1 -1)/(4 -3) = 0/1 = 0

The rate of change is zero.

__

Additional comment

The y-value is constant. That means the equation of the line is y=1, a horizontal line. It does not rise or fall. Its rate of change is zero.
