Question

PLEASE HELP!!!! Determine whether each rate of change is constant. If it is, find the rate of change and explain what it represents.

Turtle Walking

Time(min) Distance(m)

1 6
2 12
3 15
4 21

Answer 1

The rate of change isn't constant. If it took the turtle 3 minutes to travel consistently then he would've managed to go 18m. He's going 6m per minute. By 4 minutes he'd be traveling 24m if he was consistent.
