What is the rate of change of y with respect to x?

[tex]\huge \sf༆ Answer ༄[/tex]
Rate of change is ~ slope (m) of the line connecting the given point coordinates.
that is ;
[tex]{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: \dfrac {y_2 - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
[tex]{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: \dfrac{15 -8 }{5 - 9} [/tex]
[tex]{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: \dfrac {7 }{ - 4}[/tex]
[tex]{ \qquad{ \sf{ \dashrightarrow}}} \: \: \sf \: - \dfrac {7 }{ 4}[/tex]
Therefore, the Rate of change is ~
[tex]\overbrace{ \underbrace{\underline{ \boxed{ \sf - \frac{7}{4} }}}}[/tex]
The rate of change of y with respect to x is - 7 / 4
The rate of change is the rate at which one quantity changes in relation to another.
Therefore, the rate of change of y with respect to x is an evaluation of how much y changes per unit change in x.
Therefore,
let's use (9, 8) and (5, 15)
Rate of change = 15 - 8 / 5 - 9
Rate of change = 7 / - 4
Rate of change = - 7 /4
