    Step-by-step explanation:

    Mary would have a rise of 12 and a run of 4, making her slope, or rate of change, $3 a day.

    Julie would have a rise of 19 and a slope of 6, making her slope, or rate of change, $3.17 a day.

    Since Julie is raising money at a faster rate, she would get to the goal of $1000 first.
