y=mx +b is the equation for slope intercept form. y = the output of the equation m = the slope x = the input into the formula b = the y-intercept The slope represents the rate of change. This is because for every input, or x, you put into the equation, is changed by m. So the M portion of this equation would be the rate of change.
If you are talking about linear graphs, m refers to the gradient (aka slope or rate of change).
The rate of change for the linear (not liner) function, y = 2x +/- 3 is 2.
Yes. This is because the rate of change is equal to a (i.e. the slope is a). a never changes, so its linear.
In simple language, derivative is rate of change of something and integral represents the area of a curve whose equation is known.
The derivative of a quadratic function is always linear (e.g. the rate of change of a quadratic increases or decreases linearly).
Yes, the rate of change can be linear or non-linear.
The rate of change equals the slope. In the basic formula y=mx+b, the rate of change is equal to m. In the equation y=5x+3, the rate of change equals 5.
Changing the constant in a linear equation shifts the line parallel to itself along the y-axis. It does not change the slope of the line, which represents the rate of change. The constant determines where the line crosses the y-axis.

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 linear function has a constant rate of change - so the average rate of change is the same as the rate of change.Take any two points, A = (p,q) and B = (r, s) which satisfy the function. Then the rate of change is(q - s)/(p - r).If the linear equation is given:in the form y = mx + c then the rate of change is m; orin the form ax + by + c = 0 [the standard form] then the rate is -a/b.
o function is given. However, if linear , then the rate of change is the same as the steepness of the graph line.
The rate of change for the linear (not liner) function, y = 2x +/- 3 is 2.
Yes. This is because the rate of change is equal to a (i.e. the slope is a). a never changes, so its linear.
