Answer:

ans is C. 0.8 of a minute per song

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents the number of songs he wants to download to his music player,

and y represents the total amount of time, in minutes, it will take him to download the songs.

(100, 80) and (212, 169.6)

subtracting: he DL 212-100=112 songs in 169.6-80=89.6 minutes

so the rate of change = 89.6/112 = 0.8 minute per song
