Answer:
The value of rate of change in the equation [tex]T(d)=37.69d+60.22[/tex] is 37.69.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation that models the total cost(T) is:
[tex]T(d)=37.69d+60.22[/tex] where d is the drink you purchase.
To determine the rate of change:
1. An equation must be into the Slope-intercept form (y=mx+b).
2. m is the slope (rate of change) of the linear function.
3. b is the y-intercept of the linear function (y- intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis).
Since, the given equation is in the linear form i.e, [tex]T(d)=37.69d+60.22[/tex]
The rate of change(m) of the given equation is, 37.69.
