Question

The table below represents the volume of a liquid sample as a function of its temperature:

Temperature (°C)
x

Volume
(ml)
f (x)
11 95

16 100

21 105

26 110

The average rate of change of f(x) between x = 11 to x = 21 is _____ml per °C and represents the rate of change of volume per degree rise in temperature.

Answer for Blank 1:

Answer 1

the left is Temperature and the right is the Volume

you divide the y difference over the x difference

10/10 = 1

Answer 11

oh okay so it is 1 ?

Answer 13

temp goes up 1 degree ---> volume goes up 1 ml

Answer 14

oh okay I get it now.

Answer 15

Thank you so much!
