well, we can check the units right off the grid.
so, below the x-axis, we have a rectangle, is a 10x3, so it has an area of 10*3.
above the x-axis we have a trapezoid, it has to parallel sides or bases, top is 6 units, bottom base is 10 units, and it has an altitude of 2.
we can just get the area of both, sum them up, and that's the area of the figure.
This chart represents a proportional relationship. The rate of change will be 4.
<h3>What is the constant of proportionality?</h3>Firstly, there is a proportional relationship.
Two values x and y are said to be in a proportional relationship if x=ky, where x and y are variables and k is a constant.
The constant k is called the constant of proportionality.
Given;
x y
1 4
2 8
3 12
4 16
Here, x = ky
put the first value
k = 1/4
This chart represents a proportional relationship.
So the rate of change will be
