Q2:
Determine which of the given functions has the greatest rate of change.
(a)
(b) a function where the input is multiplied by 3 and subtracted from 4
(c)

Q3:
At an amusement park, a booth was selling soft drinks. By 2:00 pm, 37 soft drinks were sold, and, by 4:00 pm, 69 were sold. Assuming that the booth was selling at a linear rate during this period, determine the slope of the line representing this information.
