6. Determine the Rate of Change in the graph below.

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation slope = y2-y1/x2-x1 we can plug in (-4,-6) as x1 and y1 and (6,-1) as x2 and y2. We than have the equation -1+6/6+4 = slope, doing the math we now have 5/10 or 1/2 which is our rate of change

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
