A car is 500 miles from its destination after 2 hours and 410 miles from its destination after 3.5 hours. What is the rate of change? (1 point) Responses 1.5 miles per hour 1.5 miles per hour 60 miles per hour 60 miles per hour 90 miles per hour 90 miles per hour 135 miles per hour
To find the rate of change, we need to calculate the difference in distance divided by the difference in time.
The difference in distance is 500 - 410 = 90 miles.
The difference in time is 3.5 - 2 = 1.5 hours.
The rate of change is 90 miles / 1.5 hours = 60 miles per hour.
So the correct answer is 60 miles per hour.
