The gradient (slope) of the curve at the midpoint at which the changes are calculated or the derivative of the curve at that point. These are only crude approximations unless the function is linear or if the changes are taken over very very small intervals. Equivalently, it is the slope of the tangent to the curve.

The change in y over the change in x?
the change in y over the change in x equals the slope(m) in the equation y=mx+b
What does the slope tell you about changes in x and y?
slope is change in y over change in x
Does slope equals change in y change in x?
yes, change in y over change in x equals slope
What is the slope of a function?
The slope of a function is the y-intercept or the change in y, over the change in x.
What is the slope of the graph?
rise over run or change in y over change in x
The change in y's over the change in x's?
the change in y over the change in x equals the slope(m) in the equation y=mx+b
The change in y over the change in x?
the change in y over the change in x equals the slope(m) in the equation y=mx+b
What does the slope tell you about changes in x and y?
slope is change in y over change in x
Does slope equals change in y change in x?
yes, change in y over change in x equals slope
This is flipping an image over the x-axis. The coordinates change from (x y) to (x -y).?
Yes, they do.

How do you find the rate of change on a table?
To find the rate of change on a table: the input is X and the output is Y (the left side is X and the right is Y). The formula for the rate of change is: Change of the dependent variable over change of independent variable or y over x. ^^^ I understood NONE of that...
This is flipping an image over the x-axis. The coordinates change from (x y) to (x -y)?
Yes, that is correct.
What does the constant rate of change mean in math?
The change in y over the change in x
How do you reflect over x axis?
You change the value of y to -y. ex: (4,5) reflected over the x-axis is (4,-5)
What is the rule for finding the reflection of a point over the axis?
For a reflection over the x axis, leave the x coordinate unchanged and change the sign of the y coordinate.For a reflection over the y axis, leave the y coordinate unchanged and change the sign of the x coordinate.
