So, a coordinate plane is made out of two axis, the x and the y. Through these, we have grid squares on the plane showing points. So, each square would be one point. To find the <u>rate of change, or slope,</u> you would have to use the formula:

y(#2) - y(#1)

------------------ = Divided by

x(#2) - y(#1)

This formula will calculate the rate of change. I will do the first one for you as follows.

The first point I would find would be (1,3). 1 space on the X-axis, 3 on the Y-axis.

To write a ordered pair to represent the point on the plane, use the (X,Y).

Then, I'd find the second point.

Following the second point, I would do the equation like so.

y(2) - 3

-----------------

x(2) - 1

See, I used the first points given as the last X and Y variables in the formula.

Hope this helps you out!

Solve y = x - 5 if the domain is 5

Lunna [17]

If the domain is 5, you just put that five where you find an x. So,
y = 5 - 5
y = 0

Domain means those are the numbers that will be set as x's in the equation
