For the graph on the right, find the Average Rate of Change from 7 to 60 minutes?

The average rate of change from 7 to 60 minutes is 0.36 miles per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

at x₁ = 7, f(x₁) = 8

at x₂ = 60,  f(x₂) = 27

Using the formula to determine the average rate of change at which the total cost increases will be:

Average rate = [f(x₂) - f(x₁)] / [ x₂ - x₁]  

                     = [27 - 8] / [60-7]  

                     = 19 / 53

                     = 0.36

Therefore, the average rate of change from 7 to 60 minutes is 0.36 miles per minute.
