To interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the goat's elevation, we need to find the quotient of the change in elevation (50 feet) divided by the time it takes to climb the cliff (22 minutes).
Rate of change = change in elevation / time taken
Rate of change = 50 feet / 22 minutes
Rate of change ≈ 2.27 feet per minute
So, the rate of change in the goat's elevation is approximately 2.27 feet per minute.
A Mountain goat is climbing to the top of a large cliff the cliff is 50 feet higher than it’s starting point if it takes the goat 22 minutes to climb this cliff interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the goat’s elevation give your answer to the nearest hundredth
