Answer:
The second choice has the largest rate of change by 3
Step-by-step explanation:
you find the slopes of all of them.
# 1 has a slope of 2
# 2. [tex]\frac{y^{2}-y^{1} }{x^{2}-x^{1} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12 - 6}{3 - 1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{2}[/tex] = 3
# 3. has a slope of -5
# 4. [tex]\frac{y^{2}-y^{1} }{x^{2}-x^{1} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2.5 - 3}{1 - 0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-0.5}{1}[/tex]= -0.5
