What is the slope/rate of change of Function A?
What is the slope/rate of change of Function B between f(0) and f(1)?
What is the slope/rate of change of Function B between f(1) and f(2)?
What is the slope/rate of change of Function B between f(2) and f(3)?
The slope of Function A is
. The slope of Function B is
The slope/rate of change of Function A is 4.
To find the slope/rate of change of Function B between f(0) and f(1), we can use the formula: slope = (change in y) / (change in x). In this case, the change in y is 1 - 0 = 1 and the change in x is 1 - 0 = 1. Therefore, the slope is 1/1 = 1.
To find the slope/rate of change of Function B between f(1) and f(2), we again use the formula: slope = (change in y) / (change in x). In this case, the change in y is 4 - 1 = 3 and the change in x is 2 - 1 = 1. Therefore, the slope is 3/1 = 3.
To find the slope/rate of change of Function B between f(2) and f(3), we use the same formula: slope = (change in y) / (change in x). In this case, the change in y is 9 - 4 = 5 and the change in x is 3 - 2 = 1. Therefore, the slope is 5/1 = 5.
The slope of Function A is 4. The slope of Function B is 1 between f(0) and f(1), 3 between f(1) and f(2), and 5 between f(2) and f(3).
