Because the slope measures the rate of change. The word "CONSTANT" means no change so there is no rate of change. Having said that, it will not have a slope of zero if you are plotting displacement against time.
To find the constant rate of change is by taking the final minus initial over the initial.
If the graph is a non-vertical straight line, then the rate of change is constant. If the line is curved, then the rate of change (slope) varies.
constant rate means that rate which is fixed and can not be changed. varying rate is that rate which is not fixed and can be change easily.
The constant rate of change between two points on a line is called slope.
Linear[ity]
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!
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.
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.
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.
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 the graph is a non-vertical straight line, then the rate of change is constant. If the line is curved, then the rate of change (slope) varies.
Depending on the situation, a rate of change can be constant (at least over a certain time period), or it may be non-constant.
