Any times you see the phrase: "Rate of Change", or even sometimes just the word "Rate" think slope.
The word slope is just a fancy word that means the rate of change.
Rate of Change is just a fancy phrase meaning how much does something change over some amount of time.
So in this case our rate of change will have the units of inches per year.
Let's get to the problem at hand!
We'll need to find slope / the rate of change (the two are interchangeable with each other).
Let's go over the formula for slope:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
First we will need to label each of the "coordinated points (the two numbers that go together in a pair)" with either (x1,y1) or (x2,y2).
A Giant Red Oak's diameter in 1965 was 248 inches. Keep in mind time is ALWAYS going to be X in rate of change problems (and most all problems for that matter).
(1965,248)
(X1,Y2)
(2005,251)
(X2,Y2)
Plug in the values into the equation!
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (251 - 248) / (2005 - 1965)
m = (3) / (40)
Type that into a calculator to get a decimal value over 1.
m = 0.075 inches per 1 year.
Or...
m = 0.075in / 1 year
Add $35 + $55 and you get 90, multiply 90 by 5 and you get $450. so the answer is A. hope this helped.

Answer:
- common denominator: (x² -4)
- simplified complex fraction: (2x +1)/(9 -2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is helpful to remember the factoring of the difference of squares:
a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)
__
Your denominator of (x² -4) factors as (x -2)(x +2). You will note that one of these factors is the same as the denominator in the other fraction.
It looks like you want to simplify ...
Answer:
(D) There are probably more blue marbles than red marbles in the bag.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 100 marbles in the bag.
In the experiment of 50 trials, Sam had the following outcome:
Blue=35
Red=15
Relative Frequency of Blue Marbles =35/50=0.7
Relative Frequency of Red Marbles =15/50=0.3
Since the relative frequency of blue marbles is greater than the relative frequency of red marbles, <u>there are probably more blue marbles than red marbles in the bag.</u>
The correct option is D.
