To find the constant rate of change in the number of monkeys on the tree from 9 A.M. to 11 A.M., we use the formula for rate of change, which is:

Rate of change =

Given:

At 9 A.M., there were 18 monkeys.

At 11 A.M., there were 54 monkeys.

So, the change in the number of monkeys (Δ Monkeys) is 54−18=36 monkeys.

The change in time (Δ Time) is 11 A.M.−9 A.M.=2 hours.

Now, calculate the rate of change:

Rate of change =
