Answer:
25 (ft/s)
Step-by-step explanation:
The "rate of change" is taken to mean the "rise" divided by the "run". Here, adjacent points differ in their y-value by 25 ft and their x-value by 1 second.
The rate of change is ...
rise/run = (25 ft)/(1 second) = 25 ft/second
Usually, we're just interested in the numerical value: 25.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The graph is mis-labeled. It is not showing "rate of ascent." It is showing height as a function of time. The "rate of ascent" is the <em>slope</em> of the line on the graph, not its <em>value</em>.
True,
Good luck! I hope I helped!
