In this lesson, the instructor teaches how to find the average rate of change from a word problem. The example given is about a climber who changes altitude over time, making it easy to identify the independent and dependent variables. By using the formula for rate of change, the instructor shows how to calculate the hiker's average increase in altitude per hour. This lesson is helpful for those who want to understand how to apply the concept of rate of change in real-life scenarios.

I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.
