Answer:
The rate of change is 3 Inches/minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The equation D equals 3 T represents the relationship between the distance D in inches that a snail is from a certain Rock and the time T in minutes
To Find : what does the 3 represent
Solution :
D = Distance in Inches
T= Time in minutes
Since the given equation is :
[tex]D=3T[/tex]
Since it is linear function
Equation of line : [tex]y=mx+c[/tex]
Where m is the slope (rate of change)
Now compare the given equation with equation of line
So, m = 3
Thus 3 is the rate of change per minute
Hence the rate of change is 3 Inches/minute
Answer:
3 represents the speed of the snail measured in inches per minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation D equals 3 T represents the relationship between the distance D in inches that a snail is from a certain Rock and the time T in minutes
D = 3T
where D = distance in inches
T = time in minutes
Hence D/T = 3.
3 is the rate of change of the distance of the snail from the rock with time. This is known as the speed of the snail measures in inches per minute
