In still water, a boat averages 12 miles per hour. It takes the same amount of time to travel 14 miles downstream, with the curr

anyanavicka [17]

T is equal in both situations ... d = r X t so d/r = t
c is rate of waters current

$\frac{14}{12+c} = \frac{7}{12-c}$
14(12 - c) = 7(12 + c)
2(12 - c) = 12 + c
24 - 2c = 12 + c
12 = 3c
4 = c The rate of the waters current is 4 miles per hour.

Which function has the greater rate of change?

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Function 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Function 1:</u>

$y=\dfrac{5}{6}x+10$

The rate of change of the function 1 is:

$\dfrac{5}{6}\approx 0.83$

<u>Function 2:</u>

The rate of change of the function 2 is:

$\dfrac{15.75-14.25}{1-(1)}=\dfrac{1.5}{2}=0.75$

Hence, the greater rate of change has function 1.

Here is a pattern of dots.

EleoNora [17]

The dots in the patterns are illustrations of a sequence or progression

The number of dots in step 10 is 84
The number of dots in step n is (n -1)^2+ 3

<h3>The number of dots in step 10</h3>

From the pattern, we have:

Step 0 = 3 dots
Step 1 = 4 dots
Step 2 = 7 dots
Step 3 = 12 dots

So, we have the following pattern

$T_n = (n -1)^2+ 3$

When n = 10, we have:

$T_{10} = (10 -1)^2+ 3$

T10 = 84

This means that, there will be 84 dots in step 10 and there will be (n -1)^2+ 3 dots in step n
