Why have all the rates of change in this assignment been negative? explain.

The problems have involved going down a waterslide.

To model a slide, you start at the highest point and then decrease as you move down the slide.

The rate of change has compared a drop or decrease in vertical height to an increase in either time or horizontal distance.

The rates of change is negative because the assignment involved the model of a waterslide with a downward slope.

A negative rate of change would occur if the output decreases as the input increases, and vice versa.

For a model slide, the highest point is plotted first, and going down the waterslide shows a negative slope.

Therefore, the rates of change is negative because the assignment involved the model of a waterslide with a downward slope.
