The table represents the boiling point of water at different altitudes. What is the slope of the linear equation that represents the change in water’s boiling point based on a change of 1,000 feet in altitude? (Note: You must determine the dependent and independent variables.)The choices are the following:-0.6. . 0.5. . -1.8. . 0.6

In your question that ask what is the slope of the linear equations that is given on you table that represents the boiling point of a water . To get or to calculate the X and Y or to formula on getting the slope of the linear equation by using the X ang Y. So the slope is -1.8

Based on the table, the linear equation that represents the change in water’s boiling point for every 1,000-foot change in altitude has a slope of  

-1.8 units.
