Question

A hockey fan collected the information regrading number of games won by the school every year.
The rate of change of school 1 school 2.

• A. greate than
• B. lessser than
• C. equal to

Answer 1

The correct option is A greate than

Look at the given graph
$\text{The rate of change}=\frac{\text{Change in y}}{\text{Change in x}}$

Let's consider school 1

x	0	5
y	0	20

$\text{Slope}=\frac{20-0}{5-0}$
$=4$

Let's consider school 2

x	0	6
y	0	10

$\text{Slope}=\frac{10-0}{6-0}$
$=1.66$

Therefore, school 1 has greater rate of change than school2.
