What is the rate of change for the table shown below? PLS HELP(don't miss around else report)

a function could be identified in 3 ways either on a chart,graph, or ordered pairs. first a function is that each point has its own. the rule is that there can be many x's to one y but there can not be 2 x's at different y's. so on a graph when you put a straight line through the y's there should be one dot only to be a function.

step-by-step explanation:

d

step-by-step explanation:

the two points from this line are   (0,4)   & (2,-2)

we can call

now, lets find the slope (m):

now finding b (the y intercept). this is the point at the y-axis where the line cuts the axis. looking at the graph, it is y = 4. so the point is 4. hence b = 4

the slope-intercept form is given by  

putting the points, we have:

d is the correct answer.
