We know that:
time=distance/speed
if the tortoise speed is x m/min, then since 0.5 m/hr=1/120 m/min
18/x=23+18/(x+1/120)
solving for x we get:
x=0.08 m/min
speed of hare is:
(0.08+1/120)=0.088 m/min

Anyone know how to answer this
Papessa [141]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of function f(x) from x = a to x = b is

\dfrac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Here we have

a = -1

b = 2

f(a) = f(-1) = 1

f(b) = f(2) = 64

\dfrac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} =

= \dfrac{f(2) - f(-1)}{2 - (-1)} =

= \dfrac{64 - 1}{2 + 1}

= \dfrac{63}{3}

= 21
