the rate of change is related to the slope; the higher the slope, the higher the rate. If the line is vertical, that is infinite slope or infinite rate of change which is not possible
It is the gradient: the change in the vertical direction divided by the change in the horizontal direction.
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.
This is done with a process of limits. Average rate of change is, for example, (change of y) / (change of x). If you make "change of x" smaller and smaller, in theory (with certain assumptions, a bit too technical to mention here), you get closer and closer to the instant rate of change. In the "limit", when "change of x" approaches zero, you get the true instantaneous rate of change.
You find the average rate of change of the function. That gives you the derivative on different points of the graph.
no. the rate of change is undefined.

You measure the change in the vertical direction (rise) per unit change in the horizontal direction (run). The rate of change is constant between A and B if AB is a straight line. Take any two points, A = (xa, ya) and B = (xb, yb) then the average rate of change, between A and B = (yb- ya)/(xb- xa).
To find the average rate of change over an interval, you can calculate the difference in the function values at the endpoints of the interval, and then divide by the difference in the input values. This gives you the slope of the secant line connecting the two points, which represents the average rate of change over that interval.
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
To find the average rate of formation of HCl, divide the change in concentration of HCl by the time interval over which the change occurs. This will give you the average rate at which HCl is being formed.

You cannot. Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity over time
Although all lines have the relationship that defines slope, one can argue that not all lines do have one. The exception would be vertical lines. Slope is defined as the vertical rate of change divided by the horizontal rate of change. In the case of a vertical line, there is no horizontal rate of change, and calculating slope would cause division by zero. The closest you could come to expressing the slope of a vertical line would be ∞
what exponential function is the average rate of change for the interval from x = 7 to x = 8.
