Answer: The change in y-values from point A to B = 50
The change in x-values from point A to B = 1
The rate of change of the given function = 50 feet per second
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given graph , the coordinates of point A=(3,150) and B=(4,200)
Now, the change in y-values from point A to B = [tex]200-150=50[/tex]
The change in x-values from point A to B = [tex]4-3=1[/tex]
The rate of change of function is given by :-
[tex]r=\frac{\text{change in y-values}}{\text{change in x-values}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=\frac{50}{1}=50\text{ feet per second}[/tex]
Hence, the rate of change of the given function = 50 feet per second
