Question

2) What does the rate of change represent in context of the data? A) The price of airfare increases by $0.30 for each mile traveled. The price of airfare decreases $0.30 for each mile traveled. ( The price of airfare increases by $0.70 for each mile traveled. D) The price of airfare decreases $0.70 for each mile traveled.

Answer 1

The graph relationship is betsween distance travelled and price of the airfare. The rate of change gives information on how one quantity changes in relation to another. The equation is given as

y = 0.7x + 200

The price of airfare increases by $0.70 for each miles travelled.

We can see that as the distance increases the price of airfare also increases.
