Can you please help with finding rate of change in graphing?

One question has
times: 0 15 23 30 35
distance:30 70 0 45 60
Can you help me get started, I don't know what to do?

Also, in another question for the slope I have to find which line has greatest absolute value ?
How do I find greatest absolute value?

Thank you for your help!

rate of change is (y-change)/(x-change)

For the table shown, check each section. The rates from point to point are

(70-30)/(15-0) = 2
(0-70)/(23-15) = -70/8
(45-0)/(30-23) = 45/7
(60-45)/(35-30) = 3

absolute values are always positive. So, just compare the positive values involved.
