One definition of the derivative is: "Rate of change". Since a constant is constant, it doesn't change, and the rate at which it changes is zero.
You can determine if a rate of change is constant, by taking the instantaneous rate of change at multiple points - if they are all equal to each other, it can be assumed that the rate of change is constant. Alternatively, you can differentiate the function (if there is an associated function) - if this comes to a constant i.e. a number, then the rate of change is constant.
No. Only a linear function has a constant rate of change.No. Only a linear function has a constant rate of change.No. Only a linear function has a constant rate of change.No. Only a linear function has a constant rate of change.
A constant rate of change is anything that increases or decreases by the same amount for every trial. Therefore an example could be driving down the highway at a speed of exactly 60 MPH. If your speed doesn't change you are driving at a constant rate. Here's another: your cell phone company charges you $0.55 for every minute you use. The rate that you are charged always stays the same so it is a constant rate of change. Anything that goes up by X number of units for every Y value every time is a constant rate of change.
what is "constant rate of change"I second that.-alixa constant rate of change is the m in Y=MxB In mathematics, a constant rate of change is called a slope. For linear functions, the slope would describe the curve of the function. The world "constant" in this context means the slope and therefore angle of the curve will not change it can also be called a coefficent

If I understand correctly your question, the answer is definitely no.Think about the typical physical representation of the concept of "rate of change": the velocity is the rate of change of position, right? And there's no difficulty in imagining a non-constant velocity, as when you accelerate or decelerate..
Whatever it is it's always increasing/becoming larger/higher
A constant rate!
constant means always change means different =always different
Unit rate, slope, and rate of change are different names for the same thing. Unit rates and slopes (if they are constant) are the same thing as a constant rate of change.
A fraction is a numerical constant. Being a fraction does not alter that. And, as a constant, its rate of change is precisely zero.
To find the constant rate of change is by taking the final minus initial over the initial.
