The science club is inflating a model of a hot air balloon. the graph below shows their progress. at what rate is the diameter increasing?

12.5 centimeters per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, the rate at which the diameter increasing would be inthe units of cm/min

The rate is basically the slope of the line. The slope (m) has formula:

Where

 is any point from the graph

and

 is another point from the graph

Let's take the origin (0,0) as the first point and (4,50) as the second point. Now lets calculate the slope:

Thus, we can say:

The diameter of the hot air balloon is increasing at a rate of 12.5 centimeters per minute

not only in mathematics, scientific proof also are required in the other field of science. also maths proofs are of particular structure, containing steps and logics. so proving is like doing science, it is science. that's why it is important to prove. 

an inaccurate proof leads to errors, or stating results that are not accurate.  which wil mess the probelm up you dont want this

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
