Question

a pair of washington high school hockey fans counted the number of games won by the school each year.

according to the table, when was the rate of change greater?

between 2019 and 2022

between 2020 and 2023

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate rate of change between 2019 - 2022

The formula for rate of change is $\frac{\text{Change in games}}{\text{Change in years}}$.
Change in games = $19 - 1=18$.
Change in years = $2022 - 2019 = 3$.
Rate of change = $\frac{18}{3}=6$.

Step2: Calculate rate of change between 2020 - 2023

Change in games = $19 - 13 = 6$.
Change in years = $2023 - 2020=3$.
Rate of change = $\frac{6}{3}=2$.

Answer:

The rate of change was greater between 2019 and 2022.
