M=0.25 so the answer is a
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for a volume of a square-based prism is L² x h
If we insert 2 for L
We get 2² x 12 = 48
Same thing if we insert 3
3² x 12 = 108
As L is increasing, the volume is also increasing, so options A and D are out
The growth of the volume is not linear; it's exponential, eliminating B to make C the answer
If you want something visual, you can put y=12x² into a graphing calculator.
We know that:
1 mile = 5280 ft
1 minute = 60 sec
Therefore to convert this we simply use the conversion
factors:
(30 ft / s) * (60 s / 1 min) * (1 mi / 5280 ft) = 0.34 mi
/ min
So we got 0.34 miles per minute.
