The pattern of a linear function, is the following:
y = mx + b
Where m is always the slope.
m in this case is -4, hence
The correct answer for your question is -4.
The answer is no. I,m filling in the characters.
Let the two numbers be x and y.
Let m = the fraction (or percentage) for increasing the numbers.
Increase x by 5, multiply (x+5) by (1+m), and set it qual to 36.
(x + 5)*(1 + m) = 36
Increase y by 5, multiply (y+5) by (1+m), and set it equal to 36.
(y+5)*(1+m) = 36
Therefore
(x+5)*(1+m) = (y+5)*(1+m)
x + 5 = y + 5
x = y
x - y = 0
Answer: 0.
The difference between the two numbers is zero.
U find the slope of the two points, and that is the rate of change. the slope equation is y2-y1/x2-x1 ,, so for example, if you have the points (3,1) and (4,6) the equation you would do is 6-1/4-3 , which is equal to 5/1 (aka 5) , therefore the rate of change (and slope) is 5
