Answer: A. -2.2 B. -2.7

Step-by-step explanation: To find the rate of change is y2-y1/x2-x1.

For A y2=184.3, y1=140.3 x2=0 and x1=20. 184.3-140.3 will give you 44. 0-20 is -20. So 44 divided by -20 is -2.7.

For B its the same thing: y2=109.3, y1=28.3, x2=30, and x1=60. 109.3-28.3 is 81 and 30-60 is -30. 81 divided by -30 is -2.7.
