They are the same for a straight line but for any curve, the slope will change from point to point whereas the average rate of change (between two points) will remain the same.
The slope of a line represents the average rate of change between two points on a graph. Specifically, it is calculated as the change in the y-values divided by the change in the x-values (rise over run). In the context of a function, this means that the slope indicates how much the output (y) changes for a given change in the input (x), providing a quantitative measure of the function's growth or decline over that interval. Thus, the slope is a concrete representation of the average rate of change across the specified range.
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
The rate of change is the same as the slope.
the steepness of the line is the slope of the line which is the rate of change; the steeper the slope, the faster the rate of change
The slope of a line represents the rate of change between the dependent variable (y) and the independent variable (x). Specifically, it indicates how much y changes for a unit change in x; a positive slope means y increases as x increases, while a negative slope indicates that y decreases as x increases. The steeper the slope, the greater the rate of change. Slope can also be interpreted as the average rate of change over the interval being considered.
Depends. Slope of tangent = instantaneous rate of change. Slope of secant = average rate of change.
Yes, Rate of change is slope

Slope is blah. Rate of change is blah.

The slope of the trend line is the rate of change of the data. It is the ratio of the change of the dependent variable to the rate of change of the independent variable. Slope represents the value of the correlation.
The rate, or rate of change is like an average all except it has to do with the slope of a line instead of a group of numbers. Finding the rate of change is like finding an average except you use the points on the graph instead of numbers in a group.
The tangent at a point on the position-time graph represents the instantaneous velocity. 1. The tangent is the instantaneous slope. 2. Rather than "average" velocity, the slope gives you "instantaneous" velocity. The average of the instantaneous gives you average velocity.
yes, aka rise over run.
Slope can be referred to by rate of change because it is the rate that x changes compared to y on a graph.
