Before we calculate we can use some common sence thinknig to narrow down the choices. We know that Robert is gonig DOWN the hill, so it doesnt make sence that he woudl have a positive rate of change (i.e. the number feet up the hill he is is decreasing, not increasing) So right away, A & B are clearly wrong.
If we look at the last two (C & D) we can see that if -460 were right after 10 minutes he would have walked down 4,600 feet. This is WAY more that the total height of the hill and so can't be correct.
So C must be correct.
We can check this with some simple math:
The slope of the line will be equal to 30.
Slope of a line may be defined as the steepness of a curve. Slope of line can be positive, negative or zero. Slope of a line is used to determine the equation of the line which is given as y = mx + b where m is the slope, b is y intercept and x and y are independent and dependent variables respectively. The slope of a line on points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by the formula, m = y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁.
According to the question the value of points is (x₁, y₁) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂) = (2, 60).
Now, the slope can be calculated as
m = (60 - 0)/(2 - 0)
=> m = 60/2
=> m = 30 which is the required slope.
