Answer:
6/5 or 1.2, they're the same value
Step-by-step explanation:
When it says "rate of change", it's really just asking for the slope. If you don't know what the slope is, essentially how much the y-value increases by whenever x increases by 1. This can be formally defined using the equation: 
which is essentially 
. The subtraction is finding the difference between the two numbers to see how much it's changed by. Btw the order doesn't matter, I could plug in (-3, -2) as (x2, y2) or I could plug it in as (x1, y1) as long as I make sure to input it in correctly. In this example I'll just say (-3, -2) = (x1, y1) and (2, 4) = (x2, y2). Plugging these values into the equation gives you: 
that's the rate of change
Answer:
a = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find the equation of the line using the 2 points given.
Let's call -1 as x_1 and -5 as y_1
also, 4 as x_2 and 5 as y_2
The equation of line is :
<em>Let's plug the points and get the equation of the line:</em>
Now, to find a, we substitute a in x and 1 in y of the equation of the line we just got:
Answer:
9:6, 12:8, and 15:10 are all ratios equivalent to 3:2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an equal ratio, you can either multiply or divide each term in the ratio by the same number (but not zero).
37 is 26%(rounded up to the nearest percent) of 144
