Rate of change for this equation: y=4/3x+2

Question

This a question for my practice study guide. I need to find the rate of change for this equation.

Answer 1

The Rate of Change is a ratio that compares the change in y / change in x.

It's important to understand that the rate of change means the same thing as a slope.

The rate of change will be the same as the coefficient of x in the function.

So the rate of change or slope of this line is 4/3.
