Answer:

Y2-y1/x2-x1

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the same thing as slope. So you would do the same thing as you would for slope.

Ex. you have two coordinate points. (4,4) (5,9)

y2 would be 9

y1 would be 4

x2 would be 5

x1 would be 4

so you would do 9-4=5

then 5-4=1

So your rate of change/slope would be 5/1 or 5

Sedaia [141]

$\bf \begin{array}{cccccclllll}
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies directly to}&&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
\textit{something}&=&{{ \textit{some value}}}&\cdot &\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
y&=&{{ k}}&\cdot&x
&& y={{ k }}x
\end{array}\\ \quad \\
$

and also

$\bf \begin{array}{llllll}
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies inversely to}&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
\textit{something}&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{some value}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{\textit{something else}}\\ \quad \\
y&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{k}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{x}
&&y=\cfrac{{{ k}}}{x}
\end{array}
$

now, we know that V varies directly to T and inversely to P simultaneously
thus $\bf V=T\cdot \cfrac{k}{P}$

so $\bf V=T\cdot \cfrac{k}{P}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
V=42\\
T=84\\
P=8
\end{cases}\implies 42=\cfrac{84k}{8}\implies 4=k
\\\\\\
V=\cfrac{4T}{P}\qquad now\quad 
\begin{cases}
V=74\\
P=10
\end{cases}\implies 74=\cfrac{4T}{10}\implies 185=T$
