Days in boston=x
days in colorado=1.4x
boston+colorado=2.4x
475=2.4x
475/2.4=2.4x/2.4
198=x
198*1.4=277
days in boston=198

198+277=475
Well, parallel lines have the same exact slope, so hmmm what's the slope of the one that runs through <span>(0, −3) and (2, 3)?
</span>
<span>
so, we're really looking for a line whose slope is 3, and runs through -1, -1

Descent = 10 feet
Time required = 2 1/2 minutes.
The rate of descent = (10 feet)/(2.5 mn) = 4 ft/min
In 6 minutes, the descent will be
(4 ft/min)*(6 min) = 24 ft
Answer:
(a) 4 feet/minute
(b) 24 feet
At x=2, y=4
At x=4, y=16
So the total change in y from x=2 to x=4 is 16-4=12
And since average rate of change = total change in y divided by total change in x within the same period, therefore the answer is 12/2 = 6
Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
