For the function y 100 15x find the rate of change The rat
     For the function y = 100 - 15x, find the rate of change.  The rate of change is. (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.) 
  
  Solution
The rate of change is dy/dx
dy/dx=d/dx(100-15x)
dy/dx=d/dx(100)-15d/dx(x)
dy/dx=0-15
dy/dx=-15
therefore the rate of change =-15
