Question
The following situation involves rate of change that is constant. Write a statement that describes how one variable changes with respect to the other, give the rate of change numerical (with units) and use the rate of change rule to answer my questions.
A 1- degree change (increase or decrease) on the Celsius temperature scale is equivalent to a 9/5 degree change on the Fahrenheit temperature scale.. how much does the Fahrenheit temperature increase if the Celsius temperature increases 7 degrees? How much does the Fahrenheit temperature decrease if the Celsius temperature decreases 30 degrees?

- Give a real life example of where you might be interested in the rate of change of y relative to x. That is, replace “y” with a variable name, and “x” with a variable name (e.g., y = heart rate, x = running speedarrow_forwardQuestion Beginning 156 miles directly east of the city of Uniontown, a truck travels due south. If the truck is travelling at a speed of 31 miles per hour, determine the rate of change of the distance between Uniontown and the truck when the truck has been travelling for 81 miles.
