The rate of change in temperature is −17°F/min
Rate of change of a function
The formula for calculating the rate of change of a function is expressed as:
Rate of change = rise/run
This is also known as the slope of the function
Given the following parameters
Temperature = −25.5°F
Cooling time = 1.5mins
Determine the rate of change
Rate = −25.5°F/1.5min
Rate = −17°F/min
Hence the rate of change in temperature is −17°F/min
