What is the slope (rate of change) for Mo?
To find the slope (rate of change) for Mo, we need to determine the change in money saved for each unit change in time worked.
The change in money saved for each unit change in time can be calculated by finding the difference between consecutive money saved values and dividing it by the difference between consecutive time worked values.
For example, the change in money saved from time worked 0 to 1 is 98 - 90 = 8, and the change in time worked is 1 - 0 = 1. Therefore, the slope (rate of change) for Mo from 0 to 1 is 8/1 = 8.
Using the same approach for the other time worked and money saved values, we can calculate the slope (rate of change) for each interval:
From 0 to 1: 8
From 1 to 2: 8
From 2 to 3: 8
From 3 to 4: 8
From 4 to 5: 8
From 5 to 6: 8
Since the slope (rate of change) is constant at 8 for every interval, we can conclude that the slope (rate of change) for Mo is 8.
