I found a graph with the same problem, so I guess this is the graph to be based on. To find the rate, just determine the slope between any two points along the line. Suppose these points are: (30,10) and (50,20).
Slope = (20 - 10)/(50 - 30) = 1/2
<em>The correct answer should be: the rate of change is 1 cm per 2 weeks, or 1/2.</em>
You divide 26 by 6, and you get 4 1/3, so I guess Montel will need 5 pages.
There are a few ways you can go about solving this question. One way is to use the given information to find how many tons of flour can be processed in one hour. If 27 tons can be processed in 3 hours, we can do 27 divided by 3 to find that 9 tons of flour can be processed per hour. Then, if we want to see how many tons of flour can be processed in 8 hours, we can multiply 9 tons by 8 hours to get a total of 72 tons of flour.
I hope this helps.
Answer: The slope is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
For each unit of run in the x-values, there is an increase of 3 in the y-values. Slope is Rise over Run so 3/1 = 3
