The velocity, slope, of a line is always (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), in this case:
slope=(8-2)/(7-9)=6/-2=-3
m=-3
The rate of change is the slope.
f(x) is the same as y...
f(x) = 3x + 9.....y = 3x + 9....and in y = mx + b form, the rate of change(slope) can be found in the m position.
y = mx + b
y = 3x + 9....so the slope or rate of change is 3...not 9...so answer is false
Answer:
they are not congruent
Step-by-step explanation:
I am pretty sure it is 5/-2 (rise/run)
