i thank its A

OpenStudy (rushwr):

rate of change = the difference between the money divided by the difference between the weeks. I got D

OpenStudy (rushwr):

Rate between 4th and 15th weeks = 90-46/15-4= 44/11 = 4

OpenStudy (rushwr):

And do the same for other weeks as well and then u will get the same rate. which is 4
