The rate of change is also known as the slope or rise / run.
Slope Formula: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
First, we'll need two points that are on the line. You can choose any two points you want, as long as they are on the line.
Point 1 = (0, 1)
Point 2 = (-2, -3)
Then, we'll plug the two points into the formula and solve for the slope.
(-3 - 1) / (-2 - 0)
(-4) / (-2)
2
The rate of change of this line is 2.
Hope this helps!! :)
