part b: what is the rate of change for each stairwell.

part b: which stairwell will be easier to climb? explain reasoning

Step-by-step explanation:

In Modis Building;

He climbs 22 steps for every 15 feet of horizontal travel.

The rate of change here = 22 ÷ 15 = steps per foot of horizontal travel.

In the Sears Tower;

He climbs 17 steps for every 7 feet of horizontal travel.

The rate of change here = 17 ÷ 7 = 2 steps per foot of horizontal travel

PART B:

The stairwell in the Sears Tower is easier to climb because one covers smaller distances for every step
