A rock is dropped from the top of a 2000-foot building. After 1 second, the rock is traveling 32 feet per second. After 2 seconds, the rock
is traveling 64 feet per second. Let y be the rate of descent and be the number of seconds since the rock was dropped.
a. Write a linear equation that relates time x to rate y. (Hint: Use the ordered pairs (1,32) and (2,64).]
b. Use this equation to determine the rate of travel of the rock 15 seconds after it was droppedwas dropped.

Using the pairs (1,32) and (2,64) the rate of speed is (64-32 / 2-1 = 32 feet per second.

To find the rate of decent you would multiply the rate by time:

The equation is y = 32x

B. Replace x with 15 and solve for y:

Y = 32(15)

Y = 480

The rate of speed is 480 feet per second.
