You are hiking on a trail that leads to the top of a mountain. At 11 A.M. you reach an elevation of 2500 feet. At 2 P.M. you reach an elevation of 4000 feet. What is your mean hourly change in elevation?

The mean hourly change in elevation is 500 feet per hour 11 A.M-2 P.M = 3 hours 4000-2500= 1500 1500÷3= 500 feet per hour
