Answer to Problem 47PPS
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The table shown below shows the average points per game (PPG) Michael Redd, of the NBA’s M. B. has scored each season of his career.
Concept Used:
Equation of the line passing through the points
Calculation:
The rate of change between two points is given by the slope of the line joining those points.
From the above graph, it is clear that the slope is greatest on the period 2001-2002. Also from the given data it is clear that the PPG increased fastest during this time period.
c.
Discuss the difference in the rate of change from the 2000-01 through the 2003-04 season and from 2003-04 through the 2006-07 seasons.

Explanation of Solution
Given:
The table shown below shows the average points per game (PPG) Michael Redd, of the NBA’s M. B. has scored each season of his career.
Concept Used:
Equation of the line passing through the points
Calculation:
From the given graph it is clear that the rate of change from 2000-01 through the 2003-04 season is more higher than the rate of change from 2003-04 through the 2006-07 seasons. As the slope of the line initially was higher than the slopes in the last seasons.
