Question

Audrey & Jack begin a candlelight

Answer 1

Answer:

-2 inches per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the average rate of change is just like finding the slope. So, take the y values (height) and subtract them and divide that by the difference in the x values (time).

( 3 - 9 ) / ( 8 - 5 )

= -6 / 3

= -2 inches per hour
