Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change is the slope
Function A:
Slope = change in y/Change in x
= (9-3)/(3-0) = 6/3 = 2
Function B:
Clearly the slope is 3
(y = mx + c, m is the slope)
Rate of change of B is more than A
The answer you are looking for is b = -6.
There are 2 ways to find this. You could use...
- Add together 7 and 12 to get 19, then subtract 19 from both sides to get b = -6. OR...
- Subtract 12 from both sides to get b + 7 = 1, then subtract 7 from both sides to get b = -6.
Either way, you will get the same answer of b = -6. One method is just longer than the other. I hope this helps!
He made an error at step 2. First, you would flip the second fraction and multiply across. The answer would end up being 32/35.
