For the equation y = 7x – 2, what is the rate of change? what does it mean? explain your answer in simple terms !

slope is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the rate of change is the slope

in the general equation y = mx + b

x and y are point coordinates (x,y)

b is the y intercept

m is the slope

this is the rate at which the points are changing essentially

a larger slope will produce a steeper line

a negative slope will produce a line pointed downward

a smaller slope will produce a flatter line

the final price would be 29.6925

step-by-step explanation:

39.59 minus 25% equals 29.6925

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
