I don't know if I'm correct, I'm guessing... 30
Use the linear slope formula to solve for m:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
using the points (-1,1) and (1,5) you can find the slope for the first interval:
m=(5-1)/(1-(-1))
m=4/2
m=2
you can double check by using the same formula on the second interval, which is (1,5) to (3,9).
m=(9-5)/(3-1)
m=4/2
m=2
therefore, the rate of change is 2.
the answer is
-10 times- 5
To find the median you have to put all the numbers in order from smallest to largest and find the one that's in the middle.
All of the numbers listed are already in order, and the one that lies in the middle is 40. So the answer is 40.
