Respuesta :

The rate of change is also known as the slope. The formula to find the slope of a line is (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

You can use any two points, as long as both are on the line.

Point 1 = (2, 55)

Point 2 = (8, 220)

slope = (220 - 55) / (8 - 2)

slope = 165 / 6

slope = 55 / 2 = 27.5 / 1

Lavaughn earns $27.50 for working one hour.

Hope this helps!
