you would simply calculate the slope for each, a graph it is easy because you simply get two points on the graph and solve for it (y2-y1/x2-x1), an equation if it is in slope intercept form, the coefficient of x is the slope, from a table you use a similar method to a graph except you grab two values/instances, let's say in a table the numbers are presented like this:

3 4

2 6

You would then simply do the same thing for solving for the slope (y2-y1/x2-x1). In this instance it would be 6-2/4-3=4/1

All of these would give you the rate of change as the slope is the rate of change.

Sid needs 0.6 meters of canvas material to make a carry-all bag for his wheelchair. If canvas is $9.49 per meter, how much wi

The amount of money Sid would spend to make a carry-all bag for his wheelchair is $5.694.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Length of canvas material = 0.6 meter.

Cost of canvas per meter = $9.49

To calculate the amount of money Sid would spend to make a carry-all bag for his wheelchair:

<h3>How to solve a word problem.</h3>

In this exercise, you're required to determine the total cost required to make a carry-all bag for Sid's wheelchair, if the canvas is $9.49 per meter and 0.6 meters of it is needed. Thus, we would multiply the cost of canvas by the length of canvas material that is required.

Mathematically, this is given by this expression:

$Total\;cost = 0.6 \times 9.49$
