Rate of Change From Tables Objective: Students will be able to describe what the rate of change is and derive it by looking at a table Rate of change: is the change in the compared to the change in the Slope of a line: how the data changes over Rate of Change/Slope Formula Ax 3-J = x2x1 Example 1: Finding the Rate of Change from a table Step 1) Choose 2 points RISE RUN X y Step 2) 1: ( ,_) 2: (__) 1 7 2 9 3 11 4 13 Step 3) Label the points with X1, X2, Y1, Y2 Step 4) Put the values into the Rate of Change Formula Step 5) Solve Rate of change = Example 2: Try Together X y 0 0 1: (__) 2: (_,_) toups aid.
