Find the next three terms in each sequence.
The table shows the distance travelled by sound in water. Write an equation for this sequence. Then find the time for sound to travel 72,300 feet.
Time (s) | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Distance (ft) | 4820 | 9640 | 14460 | 19280 |
A hot air balloon was at a height of 60 feet above the ground when it began to ascend. The balloon climbed at a rate of 15 feet per minute.
a. Make a table that shows the height of the hot air balloon after climbing for 1, 2, 3, and 4 minutes.
b. Let t represent the time in minutes since the balloon began climbing. Write an algebraic equation for a sequence that can be used to find the height h, of the balloon after tminutes.
c. Use your equation from part b to find the height, in feet, of the hot air balloon after climbing for 8 minutes.
Find the rate of change for the linear function represented in the table.
Hours Worked | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Money Earned(\() | 5.50 | 11.00 | 16.50 | 22.00 |
F increase \)6.50/h
G increase \(5.50/h
H decrease \)5.50/h
J decrease $6.50/h
