F(x) = 3x+1
put x = a+h
f(a+h) = 3(a+h) + 1
f(a+h) = 3a + 3h + 1
put x = a
f(a) = 3a + 1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a + 3h + 1 -(3a+1)
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a +3h + 1 - 3a -1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3h
For #16, every input by +1 has an output of +7.
9 + 7 = 16
16 + 7 = 23
23 + 7 = 30.....
Let's look at the corresponding ratios:

And we see that the three aren't equal.
Hence, $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta EDC$ are not similar.
Answer:
B) Find the ratio of minutes to miles, 4:1. Multiply 7.5 by 4
Step-by-step explanation:
A bicyclist rides the same number of miles every minute. The ratio table below shows the number of miles she rides during certain amounts of time.
Biking Times and Distances
Number of Minutes Number of Miles
10 2.5
16 4
? 7.5
48 12
Which statement explains how to find the number of minutes it takes to bike 7.5 miles?
B) Find the ratio of minutes to miles, 4:1. Multiply 7.5 by 4....
