Find the rate of change for 2x+4y=10

rate of change for 2x+4y=10

here rate of change can be found by finding slope

the general form for slope is y=mx+b

isolating y on the left side:

2x+4y=10

4y=-2x+10

from here slope is -1/2

Rate of change =-1/2

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
