The total number of photos on Hannah's camera is a linear function when she arrived in Rome. Then she took 24 photos each day for 6 days. What is the rate change of the linear function that represent this situation

Respuesta :

Answer:  The required rate of change is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the total number of photos on Hannah's camera is a linear function when she arrived in Rome.

Also, she took 24 photos each day for 6 days.

We are to find the rate of change of the linear function that represents the given function.

Let, x and y represents the number of days and the number of photos taken in x-th day, then

[tex]y=24x.[/tex]

Then, at x = 0, y = 0

and

at x = 1, y = 24.

So, the rate of change is given by

[tex]R=\dfrac{y(1)-y(0)}{1-0}=\dfrac{24-0}{1-0}=24.[/tex]

Thus, the required rate of change is 24.
