Answer:
Option (4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the input output values of the table are represented by the equation,
y = mx + b
Here m = rate
b = y-intercept
Since, at x = 0, y = -1 [Point given in the table]
y-intercept 'b' = 0
Rate = [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 two points given in the table.
If the points are (-2, -5) and (-1, -3),
Substitute the values in the formula,
Rate = [tex]\frac{(-5)-(-3)}{(-2)-(-1)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-5+3}{-2+1}[/tex]
= 2
Therefore, Option (4) will be the answer.
