Question

A dolphin is swimming at a constant speed. It travels 30 meters every 5 seconds. What is the slope of the line that shows the relationship between x, time in seconds, and y, the distance in meters traveled by the dolphin

Answer 1

6 meters per 1 second or 6m/s

Explanation:

slope is rise/run or change in y/change in x

in this case y=30, x=5 so slope = 30/5= 6
