In order to find the unit rate
in ft / sec of 300 yards / min.
We first have to elicit the conversion
values for each unit of measurement, this will allows us identify how much will
we multiply in order to get the goaled value.
Conversion values:
<span><span>1.
</span>1 yard = 3
feet</span>
<span><span>2.
</span>1 minute =
60 seconds</span>
Solution:
<span><span>
1.
</span>300 yards x
3 feet/1 yard = 900 feet</span>
<span><span>2.
</span>1 minute x
60 seconds / 1 minute = 60 seconds</span>
Thus, 900ft/60sec

Answer:
Since a blogger has 400 subscribers to her blog in January, and the number of subscribers has grown by a factor of 1.5 every month since the, to write a sequence to represent the number of subscribers in the 3 months that followed, the following reasoning has to be made:
January: 400 subscribers
February: 400 x 1.5 = 600 subscribers
March: 600 x 1.5 = 900 subscribers
April: 900 x 1.5 = 1,350 subscribers
