Answer:

• vertical change: 1 unit
• horizontal change: 2 units
• rate of change: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The marks on the graph show the vertical change is 1 unit, and the horizontal change is 2 units.

The "rate of change" is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change:

  rate of change = slope = Δy/Δx = 1/2 = 0.5

Expressed as a decimal, the rate of change is 0.5.
