At 1 pm you have 24 megabytes of a movie at 1:15 PM you have 96 megabytes. What is the download rate in megabytes per minute? (Show work)

The rate of change is a slope. In this case the change in megabytes divided by the change in minutes. m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) If you use 1:00pm as a starting point then your data points would be (0, 24), (15, 96)
