Math Problem Statement
Solution
The task seems to involve finding shapes, graphs, and tables that share the same constant rate of change (which could mean the slope of a linear equation or the ratio between dimensions for triangles). Let's break down the image:
-
Triangles: The slope of a triangle can be calculated by using "rise over run" (height divided by base).
- Triangle 1: Height = 6, Base = 2, so slope = .
- Triangle 2: Height = 6, Base = 3, so slope = .
- Triangle 3: Height = 8, Base = 2, so slope = .
- Triangle 4: Height = 2, Base = 8, so slope = .
-
Tables: The rate of change in tables is the difference in y-values divided by the difference in x-values (the slope of a line).
- Table 1: (x, y) values: , so the slope = .
- Table 2: (x, y) values: , so the slope = .
- Table 3: (x, y) values: , so the slope = .
- Table 4: (x, y) values: , so the slope = .
-
Graphs: The slope of a graph can be identified based on the inclination of the line.
- Graph 1: Downward slope, slope = -2.
- Graph 2: Upward slope, slope = 3.
- Graph 3: Very gentle upward slope, slope = 0.25.
- Graph 4: Downward slope, slope = -4.
Now, we can group them by matching slopes:
- Slope = 3: Triangle with height 6, base 2; Table 2; Graph 2.
- Slope = -2: Table 1; Graph 1.
- Slope = 0.25: Triangle with height 2, base 8; Table 3; Graph 3.
- Slope = -4: Triangle with height 8, base 2; Table 4; Graph 4.
You can create stacks by placing the matching items together based on their slope.

Relative questions:
- How do you calculate the slope of a triangle?
- What is the formula for determining the slope between two points on a table?
- How do positive and negative slopes differ visually on a graph?
- Can two different triangles have the same slope if their dimensions are proportional?
- How does the constant rate of change help in identifying linear relationships?
Tip: The slope represents how steep a line is and whether it increases or decreases as you move from left to right.
