Question

A snail travels at a rate of 2.37 feet per minute. write a rule to describe the function. how far will the snail travel in 6 minutes

Answer 1

Answer:

Rule for Distance is f(t) = 2.37t and distance covered in 6 minutes is 14.22 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Snail = 2.37 feet per minute

To write the rule we use relation of Speed, Distance and time

Distance = Speed × Time

So, Distance cover by snail in t minutes is given by f(t) = 2.37 × t

⇒ f(t) = 2.37t

Distance traveled by Snail in 6 minutes , f(6) = 2.37 × 6 = 14.22 feet

Therefore, Rule for Distance is f(t) = 2.37t and distance covered in 6 minutes is 14.22 feet.

Answer 2

2.37/minute

14.22 feet in six minutes
