The graph of the linear function y = f(x) passes through the points (-2, 13) and (5, 27). What is the rate of change of y with respect to x? A) 2

B) -2

C) 1/2

D) -1/2

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.

hope i !
