The average rate of change of a linear function is the slope of the line. Since we are given the following coordinates:
(0,150) and (3,0)
We can easily solve for the slope.
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (0 - 150) / (3 - 0) = -50
Therefore, the average rate of change of the function in the three seconds is -50.
Using sampling concepts, it is found that this is an example of independent samples.
- For dependent samples, there is a paired measurement for one set of items.
- For independent samples, separate measurements are made on two different sets, that is, the value on one sample reveal no information about the values on the other sample.
In this problem, there are two samples, the sample composed of male workers and the one composed of female workers, and separate measurements are taken, hence, it is an independent sample.

bearing in mind that an explicit form is simply the sequence written as a function of some variables, so we simply simplify and add like-terms.
