  1. What is a secant line?

    1. the instantaneous rate of change

    2. the average rate of change

    3. the slope of a line

    4. the equation of a line

    5. straight line joining two points of a graphed function

  2. What is a tangent line?

    1. the instantaneous rate of change

    2. the average rate of change

    3. the slope of a line

    4. the equation of a line

    5. straight line based on the slope at one point
