To determine the rate of change (slope) of the distance below sea level with respect to time, we need two points (time, distance) to calculate the slope. The slope (m) of a linear relationship can be calculated using the formula:
\[
m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
\]
where:
- \( y_1 \) and \( y_2 \) are the distances below sea level at times \( x_1 \) and \( x_2 \) respectively.
Unfortunately, the information provided in your message does not include another point (another time and distance). It only shows that the distance below sea level is 1172 feet, without specifying the corresponding time.
If you have the time value at which the submarine is at 1172 feet below sea level, please provide it, or share another point from the table to make the calculation. Otherwise, I cannot calculate the rate of change.
