    The rate of change in this case is 50 lbs per box. The fixed amount that the elevator must carry is 210 lbs, which is George's weight. The amount that varies with additional boxes is 50 lbs per box, making it the rate of change. If this situation was graphed, George's weight would be the y-intercept and the rate of change would be the slope of the line.
