A 2-column table with 3 rows. The first column is labeled time (t) with entries negative 2, 3.5, 30. The second column is labeled Elevation(e) with entries a, b, c.
Rory is staying in a cabin on a hill 300 feet above sea level. She walks down the hill to the water’s edge. The equation of her average change in elevation over time is e = 300 – 10t, where t is the time in minutes since she left the cabin, and e is her elevation with regard to sea level. Which values are viable points, and what are their values in the table relating t and e?

Based on the table, the values relating t and e with their viability is given by:

  1. e = 330 (not viable).
  2. e = 265 (viable).
  3. e = 0 (viable).

What is a linear function?

A linear function can be defined as a type of function whose equation is graphically represented by a straight line on the cartesian coordinate.

What is an average rate of change?

An average rate of change is also referred to as slope and it can be defined as a type of function that describes the average rate at which a quantity changes (decreases or increases) with respect to another quantity, over a period of time.

From the table, we would determine which values are viable points as follows:

At a = -2, we have:

e = 300 - 10t

e = 300 - 10(-2)

e = 300 + 30

e = 330 (not viable).

At b = 3.5, we have:

e = 300 - 10t

e = 300 - 10(3.5)

e = 300 - 35

e = 265 (viable).

At c = 10, we have:

e = 300 - 10t

e = 300 - 10(30)

e = 300 - 300

e = 0 (viable).
