The table represents a linear function. the rate of change between the points (–5, 10) and (–4, 5) is –5. what is the rate of change between the points (–3, 0) and (–2, –5)?

The rate of change between the points (–3, 0) and (–2, –5) is:

                          -5

The rate of change between the points (-5, 10) and (-4, 5) is -5.

Now we are asked to find the average rate of change between (-3,0) and (-2,-5)

We know that the average rate of change between two points (a,b) and (c,d) is calculated by the formula:

Here we have:

(a,b)=(-3,0) and (c,d)=(-2,-5)

Hence, the average rate of change is:

Also, we know that for any linear function the average rate of change is same between any two points.

           Hence, the answer is:

                        -5

the rate of change is -5

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
