1/6 foot 0.16666667 ft
________ = ________________ = 0.50 ft/hr
1/3 hour 0.33333333 hr
A unit rate is identified as a rate with 1 in the denominator. Therefor, a garden snail moves 0.50 feet per 1 hour.
A. I would suggest including <em>all</em> units in your answer. Both answers are correct but the unit is also important.
average rate of change:
($750 - $350) / (2014 - 2010) = $400 / (4 years) = $100 per year
initial value:
$350
B. Take 2010 to be year 0. Then for year <em>x</em> = 0, the fee is <em>y</em> = $350.
If the fee increases at a rate of $100 per year, this means that when <em>x</em> = 1, <em>y</em> = $350 + $100 = $450. So the graph of the function that models the dog-walking fee is a line that passes through the points (0, 350) and (1, 450), adn the slope of this line is
(450 - 350) / (1 - 0) = 100/1 = 100
which is the same as the average rate of change.
Using the point-slope formula for a line, the equation you want is then
<em>y</em> - 350 = 100 (<em>x</em> - 0)
<em>y</em> - 350 = 100<em>x</em>
<em>y</em> = 100<em>x</em> + 350
