Question 945353
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
{{{(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)}}}=rate point(x1,y1)=(0,0) point (x2,y2)=(3,288)
{{{(288-0)/(3-0)}}}=rate
{{{288yds/3min}}}=rate
96 yds/min=rate ANSWER Ed's rate is 96 yds/min
