Answer 2

Each minute Seung fills one less bag than Razi.

Explanation:

Find the rate of change.

Razi's rate of change:

`(y(b)-y(a))/(b-a)\\ \\=(y(2)-y(1))/(2-1)\\ \\=(44-48)/(2-1)\\ \\=(-4)/(1)\\ \\=-4`

Seung's rate of change:

`(y(b)-y(a))/(b-a)\\ \\=(y(4)-y(3))/(4-3)\\ \\=(31-34)/(4-3)\\ \\=(-3)/(1)\\ \\=-3`

This means Razi packs 4 bags per minute, Seung packs 3 bags per minute.

Difference = 4 - 3 = 1 bag

Each minute Seung fills one less bag than Razi.
