Answer:
Option D [
] in the list of possible answers
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem you are supposed to use a calculator that allows you to do an exponential regression. There are many tools that can help you with that, depending on what your instructors has assigned for your class.
I am showing you the results of a graphing tool I use, and which after entering the x-values and the y-values in independent "List" forms, when I request the exponential regression to fit the data, I get what you can see in the attached image.
Notice that the exponential of best fit with my calculator comes in the form:

with optimized parameters:

Notice as well that since:

the exponential best fit can also be written:

and this expression is very close to the last option shown in your list of possible answers
Average speed for the entire trip, both ways, is
(Total distance) divided by (total time) .
We don't know the distance from his house to the gift store,
and we don't know how long it took him to get back.
We'll need to calculate these.
-- On the trip TO the store, it took him 50 minutes, at 6 mph.
-- 50 minutes is 5/6 of an hour.
-- Traveling at 6 mph for 5/6 of an hour, he covered 5 miles.
-- The gift store is 5 miles from his house.
-- The total trip both ways was 10 miles.
-- On the way BACK home from the store, he moved at 12 mph.
-- Going 5 miles at 12 mph, it takes (5/12 hour) = 25 minutes.
Now we have everything we need.
Distance:
Going: 5 miles
Returning: 5 miles
Total 10 miles
Time:
Going: 50 minutes
Returning: 25 minutes
Total: 75 minutes = 1.25 hours
Average speed for the whole trip =
(total distance) / (total time)
= (10 miles) / (1.25 hours)
= (10 / 1.25) miles/hours
= 8 miles per hour
Answer:
U can see it in your thermometer
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up multiplication/division of ratios to cancel out units you don't need for the final answer and introduce those that you do.
We have m/s and we want m/min so
(100m/s)(60s/min)=6000m/min
