Sorry it's late but it was C

MrRoyalgo

The true option is (d) 5, 20; The rate of change is $5 per hour. The initial value is $20.

(a) The rate of change

Write out any two points from the table

(x,y) = (2,30) (4,40)

So, the rate is calculated using the following slope formula

[tex]Rate = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]Rate = \frac{40-30}{4-2}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]Rate = \frac{10}{2}[/tex]

Divide the fraction

[tex]Rate = 5[/tex]

So, the rate is $5

(b) The initial value

This is the y value, when x = 0.

Represent this point with (0,y).

Calculate the slope (m) of the table using points (0,y) and (2,30).

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{30 - y}{2-0}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]m = \frac{30 - y}{2}[/tex]

Substitute 5 for m

[tex]\frac{30 - y}{2} = 5[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex]30 - y = 10[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]y = 30 -10[/tex]

[tex]y = 20[/tex]

Hence, the initial value is $20
