The amount of stretch in a short bungee cord stretches 6 inches when stretched by a 3pound weight. A slinky stretches 3 feet when stretched by a 1 pound weight. State which situation has the greatest rate of change

Answer:

The slinky situation

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a rate, divide one value by the other.

For the short bungee,

6 inches ÷ 3 pound = 2 inches per pound

While the slinky,

36 inches (remember to convert feet to inches) ÷ 1 pound = 36 inches per pound

As you can tell by the numbers, 36 inches per pound is way better than the 2 inches per pound.
