It looks like ∆ is defined as
<em>a</em> ∆ <em>b</em> = (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)² + 5
If that's the case, then
1 ∆ (-4) = (1 + (-4))² + 5 = (-3)² + 5 = 9 + 5 = 14
Answer:
Rate of change is 6/7 Initial value: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope (which is the rate of change), use (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2).
x1 and y1 will be (0, 6)
x2 and y2 will be (7, 0)
Note that x1 x2 y1 y2 can be any points on the line, I just chose these because they were x and y-intercepts.
(6 - 0)/(0 - 7) = 6/7
The initial value is simply the y-intercept, which is 6.
Given:
Speed = 6 miles per second
If the Saturn revolves 6 miles in 1 second then the speed is:
So speed in minutes is 360 miles per min.
In 3 minutes traveling distance is:
