In this question, the speed of the dolphin is already given, but the unit is different. The speed of the dolphin is given as 40 miles per hour and it has to be converted to feet per hour.
We already know that 1 mile = 5280 feet
Then
40 mile = 5280 * 40 feet
= 211200 feet
So the speed in feet per hour will be 211200 feet per hour. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar problems without requiring any help from outside.
Changing the order may not affect the answer in some situation, however it's not a rule.
Answer: The complete question is found in the attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
a) To determine the 1-unit growth factor for <em>f</em>
= 2.1/1.75 = 1.2
b) To determine the 1-unit percent change for <em>f</em>
<em>=100 x 1-1.2/1 = 0.2 x 100= 20%</em>
<em>c) to determine the initial value of f</em>
<em>f(x)= abˣ , b =1.2 a=initial value</em>
<em>at (-1,2.1)</em>
<em>2.1= (1.2)⁻¹ x a</em>
<em>a = 2.1/(1.2)⁻¹ </em>
<em>a = 2.1 x 1.2 = 2.52</em>
<em />
<em>d) to determine the function formula for f</em>
<em>f(x)= abˣ = 2.52(1.2)ˣ</em>
The unit rate is 9 miles per hour.
In order to find how much its unit rate will be you need to use this expression below.
<em>n = number of hours</em>
<em>m = number of miles </em>
m divided by n or <em>m/n</em>
In order to find how much does he travel in given hours see this below.
<em>n = number of hours</em>
<em>m = number of miles for 1 hour</em>
<em>nm or n * m</em>
