The distance between two numbers is the absolute value of their difference.

Note that the order doesn't matter, since the distance between A and B is the same as the distance between B and A, obviously:

$d=|-4-5|=|-9|=9$

$d=|5-(-4)|=|5+4|=|9|=9$

So, the two points are 9 units away.

The table shows the height of a soccer ball that has been kicked from the ground over time. (For reference: h(t) = 144 – 16t2) T

adoni [48]

Answer : option D

The rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.

Rate of change is nothing but the slope

To find slope we use formula $\frac{Change in height }{change in time}$

Time (seconds) Height (feet) Rate of change

0 -------------------------0

0.5 -----------------------16 -------------------- $\frac{16-0}{0.5-0} =32$

1 ----------------------24 -------------------- $\frac{24-16}{1-0.5} =16$

1.25 -----------------------25-------------------- $\frac{25-24}{1.25-1} =4$

1.5 -------------------------24 -------------------- $\frac{24-25}{1.5-1.25} =-4$

2 ----------------------------16 -------------------- $\frac{16-24}{2-1.5} =-16$

2.5 -------------------------0 -------------------- $\frac{0-16}{2.5-2} =-32$

Rate of change is positive till 1.25 seconds and then it becomes negative. From this it is clear that, the rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.
