Thank you for providing the data for the bales of hay and mules. Based on the given values, the slope for the bales of hay and mules is 1/2.
To determine the situation with the greatest rate of change, we need the corresponding data for the cost and square footage of carpet. If you can provide the values for the cost and square footage of carpet, I can assist you in finding the situation with the greatest rate of change.
10 square feet of carpet
15 total cost of dollars
And so on
Thank you for providing the values for the cost and square footage of carpet.
Based on the 10 square feet of carpet costing 15 dollars, and assuming a linear relationship between the cost and square footage, we can calculate the slope.
The slope for the cost and square footage of carpet is:
slope = (change in cost) / (change in square footage)
slope = (15 dollars - 0 dollars) / (10 square feet - 0 square feet)
slope = 15 dollars / 10 square feet
slope = 3/2
Therefore, the slope for the cost and square footage of carpet is 3/2.
Now, to determine which situation has the greatest rate of change, we can compare the slopes. The slope of the cost and square footage of carpet (3/2) is greater than the slope of the bales of hay and mules (1/2).
Therefore, the situation with the greatest rate of change is the cost and square footage of carpet.
