You can put this solution on YOUR website! Max climbs a hiking trail at a constant rate of 18 meters in 15 minutes. The line y=me can be used to model Max's climb, where y is the distance he climbs and x is the time in minutes. Which is the slope of the line, m?
---------
Do you mean y = mx ?
--------
--> m = y/x = 18/15
= 1.2 meters/minute
