Question 1010146: The distance d, in miles, a car travels on the highway over time t, in hours, is modeled by the linear function d=60t+20. Identify the rate of change and explain what it means in this situation. Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The rate of change is 60 miles per hour.
This means that for every hour driven, a driver goes another sixty miles.
