Answer:
a). Rate = 6
b). Starting value = 12
c). y = 6x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
From the table attached,
a). Rate of the function = slope of the function
= [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Where [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] are the points through which the function is passing.
Let the two points from the table are (-2, 0) and (-1, 6),
Rate = [tex]\frac{6-0}{-1+2}[/tex] = 6
b). Starting value of the function = y-intercept = 12
(Since, y-intercept means y-value at x = 0)
c). Since, slope intercept form of the linear function is,
y = mx + b
y = 6x + 12
