Answer:

The rate of change is -5

Explanation:

The rate of change between two points means to find its slope.

The coordinates given are points A(–3, 0) and B(–2, –5).

Remember that coordinates are designated (X, Y)

The rate of change/

Slope ∆= (Y2 - Y1)/ (X2 - X1)

∆ = (-5 - 0)/ (-2- (-3))

∆ = -5/ (-2+3) = -5/ 1

The rate of change is -5
