Answer:
D: 2/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:
BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.
__
None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.
While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.
There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.
Answer: Rate of A: 5/6
Rate of B: 3/5
A has a higher rate of change
Step-by-step explanation: You calculate slope/rate of change by determining the rise over the run. The rate of change in A is 5/6x, this is bigger than the slope of B.
