Linear equations are of the form
, where is usually called slope,
but it could also be called rate of change.
For example, if a small child gets a piggy bank with 5 coins inside,
and each night adds the coins mom gives him as allowance because he was a good boy,
after days, the number of coins in the piggy bank, ,
will be
, with a rate of change (or slope) of .
, and ,
so a rate of is between the two numbers specified.
