How do you find the rate of change for the set of ordered pairs?

It is the change in the second element of the two pairs divided by the change in the corresponding first elements.
So, if the two pairs are (p, q) and (r, s), the rate of change is
(q - s)/(p - r) or, equivalently (s - q)/(r - p). It does not matter which of the two pairs goes first but the same order must be used for the numerator and the denominator - that is why the word "corresponding" was used above.

How do you find rate of change?
slope formula is the answer
What does a rate of change indicate?
The rate of change indicates the change in one variable per unit change in a second variable at (or around) that level for the second variable.
What does the slope mean on a line graph?
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
Does a steep curve on a line graph indicate a rapid or slow rate of change?
A rapid rate of change (which looks like this, U). A slow rate of change would have a slowly declining line like this (\ \ \ )
Can a steep curve in a line graph indicate a rapid or a slow rate of change?
its going to be a rapid rate of change because it changes fast. a slow rate would be a steady or a smaller curve
What is the approximate average rate of change over the interval 2 6?
There have to be two (or more) ordered pairs for an average rate of change to make any sense. Your question does not.
How do you find rate of change if change is not constant?
Find the derivative
How to find the constant rate of change?
To find the constant rate of change is by taking the final minus initial over the initial.
Why do take derivative?
To find rate of change. Two common examples are: rate of change in position = velocity and rate of change of velocity = acceleration.
What equation do you use to find the rate of change?
Rate of change = amount of change in some period of time/amount of time for the change
What is the every-day use of a derivative?
To find the rate of change. Velocity, for example, is the rate of change of distance - in a specified direction. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
How do you find rate of change?
slope formula is the answer
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...
How do you find the varying rate of change in temperature?
Meaningless question.
How do you find the rate of change from graphs?
Differentiate the graph with respect to time.
What is colums filled with pairs of numbers that have the same rate?
No
How does average change help find instant rate of change in math?
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.
