A cardiac monitor is used to measure the heart rate of a patient after surgery. It compiles the number of heartbeats after t minutes. When the data in the table are graphed, the slope of the tangent line represents the heart rate in beats per minute. The monitor estimates this value by calculating the slope of a secant line. Use the data to estimate the patient's heart rate after 42 minutes using the secant line between the points with t = 38 and t = 42. t (min) 36 Heartbeats 2, 500 38 2, 700 40 2, 900 42 2, 990 44 3, 050 Choose the correct answer from the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 145 -71. 5 77. 5 82. 5 71. 5 72. 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50

A tank holds 1000 gallons of water, which drains from the bottom of the tank in half an hour. The values in the table show the volume V of water remaining in the tank (in gallons) after t minutes. If P is the point (15, 284 ) on the graph of V, find the slope of the secant line PQ when Q is the point on the graph with t = 25. t (min) V (gal) 5 652 10 465 15 284 20 174 25 17 30 0 Choose the correct answer from the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. -36. 8 -26. 7 -18. 933333 22 18. 933333 26. 7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
