Question

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

Answer 1

The correct answer is 3/2.

Slope = Rate Of Change 

Slope Formula:        y₂ - y₁          5 - 2         3
                               -------------- = ---------- = -----
                                   x₂ - x₁          3 - 1         2

I hope that this helps you!

Btw, ₁ and ₂ are subscripts, they do not have anything to do with the actual working of the problem.
