How do I find the rate? Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The rate is change in distance over change in time . In this case time is on the x axis and distance on the y axis so you would have delta y/delta x or =rate point(x1,y1)=(0,0) point (x2,y2)=(3,288) =rate =rate
96 yds/min=rate ANSWER Ed's rate is 96 yds/min
