Jasper is eating tacos at a constant rate. The amount of tacos depends on time.
y= 2.5x
y is the number of tacos eaten
x is the time in minutes

what is the rate of change of jaspers taco eating capabilities?


how many tacos will jasper consume in 9mins

Answer 1

The rate of change, I believe, based on what you have given us in terms of information, would be 2.5. Because Jasper would eat 2.5 tacos per minute; thus, the rate would increase by 2.5 each time.

And for the second part, you would simply multiply 2.5 by 9 to get 22.5. Jasper would eat 22.5 tacos in 9 minutes.
