Answer: (B) 3 times as fast

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

rate of change is the "slope" between the given interval.

f(x) = 125(.9)ˣ

f(1) = 125(.9)¹

    = 112.5

f(5) = 125(.9)⁵

     = 73.8

\dfrac{f(5) - f(1)}{5 - 1} = \dfrac{73.8-112.5}{5-1} = -\dfrac{38.7}{4} = -9.675

********************

f(11) = 125(.9)¹¹

       = 39.2

f(15) = 125(.9)¹⁵

       = 25.7

\dfrac{f(15) - f(11)}{15 - 11} = \dfrac{39.2-25.7}{15-11} = -\dfrac{13.5}{4} = -3.375

********************

The rate of change from years 1 to 5 is approximately 3 times the rate of change from years 11 to 15.

Select the correct answer.<br> Which graph represents a proportional relationship
vodka [1.7K]

If the relationship between two quantities is a proportional relationship, this relationship can be represented by the graph of a straight line through the origin with a slope equal to the unit rate. For each point (x, y) on the graph, ž is equal to k, where k is the unit rate. The point (1, k) is a point on the graph.

Hope this helps...
