Amir drove from Jerusalem down to the lowest place on Earth, the Dead Sea, descending at a rate of 12 meters per minute. He was at sea level after 30 minutes of driving. Graph the relationship between Amir's altitude relative to sea level (in meters) and time (in minutes).

Graph these two points: (0, 360), (30, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Amir drove for 30 minutes at a rate of 12 meters, that means that he started at an elevation of 360 feet. The easiest way to graph this, is to place one dot at (0, 360), and at (30, 0).

you time will be 30 minutes, and your meters will be 360

Step-by-step explanation:

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
