Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The variable rate is typically represented by the slope of a line or curve, which describes the relationship between two variables. Therefore, the appropriate item for this definition is the slope (option D). The other options are not directly related to the concept of variable rate. The dependent variable (option A) is the variable being observed or measured, while the independent variable (option B) is the variable that is manipulated in an experiment or study. The intercept (option C) is the point where a line or curve crosses the y-axis, and represents the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is equal to zero.
