Rory is staying in a cabin on a hill 300 feet above sea level. She walks down the hill to the water’s edge. The equation of her

average change in elevation over time is e = 300 – 10t, where t is the time in minutes since she left the cabin, and e is her elevation with regard to sea level. Which values are viable points, and what are their values in the table relating t and e?

I can create a table listing possible values and explain the construction process so you can verify whether the points in your list apply. Given the equation e = 300 – 10t, where e is elevation and t is time in minutes:

t (min) - elevation e (feet)
0 - 300 – 10(0) = 300
10 - 300 – 10(10) = 200
20 - 300 – 10(20) = 100
30 - 300 – 10(30) = 0

The resulting coordinate pairs are (0,300), (10, 200), (20, 100), and (30,0). Simply input the time value into the formula to calculate e, then list points as (t, e).
