The graph represents function 1, and the equation represents function 2: a coordinate plane graph is shown. a horizontal line is graphed passing through the y-axis at y = 3. function 2 y = 5x + 4 how much more is the rate of change of function 2 than the rate of change of function 1?

The rate of change of Function 2 is 5, the coefficient of x.
The rate of change of Function 1 is 0, because there is no change.

The rate of change of function 2 is 5 more than the rate of change of function 1.

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
