Question

Do you get the rate of change of 260 feet per minute if you use consecutive rows of the rows of the table? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate of change for nonconsecutive rows and consecutive rows are the same because the changes are constant for each column.

Time has a constant change, distance also has a constant change.

Explanation:

Using two consecutive rows, say rows 1 and 2, we have:

$\frac{520-260}{2-1}=260$

This is the same for nonconsecutive rows because, the change is constant for each column.

The rate of change for time is 1

The rate of change for distance is 260.
