Will the rate of change be positive or negative?
It can be positive or negative, or even both - at different stages.For example, the rate of change of the balance in my bank account is positive at the end of the month - when my pay goes in - but it is negative for most of the rest of the time while I am spending it!
What does it mean if a function has a constant rate of change?
if a number can change randomly it is called a variable
What is the rate of change of the function y equal negative 5?
0. There is no x in your equation so regardless of how you change your input, the output y never changes.
Does rate of change mean the same as slope?
For continuous functions, yes.
What is the geometrical meaning of second derivative?
The first derivative is the rate of change, and the second derivative is the rate of change of the rate of change.
What is an example of a negative rate of change?
a car braking is a negative rate of velocity change
Does the rate of change have to be negative?
no... the sign indicates whether the rate of change is increasing or decreasing. It is only negative if the rate is decreasing over time.
What the difference between negative rate of change and positive rate of change?
A quantity with a negative rate of change becomes smaller as time goes on. A quantity with a positive rate of change becomes larger as time goes on.
What is the difference between positive negative and constant rate of change?
left to right positive,right to left negative rate
What does acceleration mean as a science term?
It's the change in velocity, the rate of change (derivative) which is instantaneous velocity. Acceleration can be positive or negative, meaning increased or decreased velocity respectively.
Will the rate of change be positive or negative?
It can be positive or negative, or even both - at different stages.For example, the rate of change of the balance in my bank account is positive at the end of the month - when my pay goes in - but it is negative for most of the rest of the time while I am spending it!
When the rate of change between any two points on a line is negative What is the slope of the line?
No
Does a negative acceleration always mean that an object is slowing down?
No. A negative acceleration could mean a change in direction
What is the rate of charge of velocity?
I think you mean the "rate of CHANGE" of velocity. (If you don't, then the question is meaningless.) The rate of change of velocity is called " acceleration ".
What does the slope mean on a line graph?
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
What is acceleration and retardation?
acceration means rate of change of velocity and if that acceration is negative then it is called as retardation
What is the meaning of acceleration?
of Accelerate
