mario and luigi are comparing their daily caloric intake each day luigi chooses healthy 100 calorie snacks such as carrots while mario chooses to snack on chips and candy that have 200 calories each

Part a-what does the rate of change for each line represent

The rate of change for each line represents the change in caloric intake per day.

part b-what is marios rate of change what is luigis rate of change

Mario's rate of change would be 200 calories per day, as he consistently chooses snacks with that calorie count.

Luigi's rate of change would be 100 calories per day, as he consistently chooses snacks with that calorie count.

part c- how does marios rate of change compare to luigis rate of change why are the two rates different from one another

Mario's rate of change (200 calories per day) is higher than Luigi's rate of change (100 calories per day). This is because Mario chooses snacks with higher calorie content (chips and candy with 200 calories each) compared to Luigi who chooses healthier snacks with lower calorie content (carrots with 100 calories). The difference in their rates of change is due to their different choices of snacks.
