Answer:
• The function is a linear function
• The function changes at a constant rate
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph of the function shows it to be a straight line (linear function). Such a function always changes at a constant rate. The line goes downward to the right, so the function is a decreasing function.
___
"changes at a constant rate" and "linear function" are two different ways of saying the same thing: the graph of the function is a straight line.
