Question

Rory is staying in a cabin on a hill 300 feet above sea level. She walks down the hill to the water’s edge. The equation of her average change in elevation over time is e = 300 – 10t, where t is the time in minutes since she left the cabin, and e is her elevation with regard to sea level. Which values are viable points, and what are their values in the table relating t and e? a = b = c =

Answer 1

Well, from what you’ve posted, it seems that a negative value cannot be accepted since that would imply she has gone underwater. She also cannot go above 300 feet since she is going downwards from a max height.

Answer 2

The correct answer :

a = not viable

b = 265

c = 0
