Answer: function 1
Rate of change of function 1:
Following the format of y=mx+c, the rate of change should be m, so, the rate of change for function 1 = 4
To find the gradient (rate of change):
The two points the line passes through are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), which in this case is (1, 6) and (3, 10)
(Doesn't matter which is which but you need to make sure that once you decide which is which, you stick to it)
To calculate the gradient, you substitute these values following (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)
Gradient of function 2 = (10 - 6)/(3 - 1)
= 2
Therefore, since 4 > 2, rate of change of function 1 > rate of change of function 2.
Here, you have to foil the equation.
Distribute 4x to all sides, then distribute the -3 to all sides. Next, combine like terms. If you do this, your answer will be
A) (12 ft)/(2 3/8 ft) = 5 1/19
The maximum height of a stack of boxes is 5 boxes.
b) (1/19)*(2 3/8 ft) = 1/8 ft is the room left at the top of the stack.
