The greatest rate of change between the interval 0 to 1 hour.

Given that,

The graph below shows the distance in miles, m, hiked from a camp in h hours.

We have to determine,

Which hourly interval had the greatest rate of change?

According to the question,

The greatest rate of change between the interval is determined by the rate of change between two points refers to the vertical change divided by the horizontal change.

1. The rate of change between 0 to 1 hours is,

$\rm Rate \ of \ change = \dfrac{2-0}{1-0}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= \dfrac{2}{1}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= 2$

The rate of change between 0 to 1 hour is 2.

2. The rate of change between 2 to 3 hours is,

$\rm Rate \ of \ change = \dfrac{4.5-3.5}{3-2}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= \dfrac{1}{1}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= 1$

The rate of change between 2 to 3 hours is 1.

3. The rate of change between 1 to 2 hours is,

$\rm Rate \ of \ change = \dfrac{3.5-2}{2-1}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= \dfrac{1.5}{1}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= 1.5$

The rate of change between 1 to 2 hours is 1.5.

4. The rate of change between 3 to 4 hours is,

$\rm Rate \ of \ change = \dfrac{5-4.5}{4-3}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= \dfrac{0.5}{1}\\\\ Rate \ of \ change= 0.5$

The rate of change between 2 to 3 hours is 1.

Hence, The required greatest rate of change between the interval 0 to 1 hour.

Option 1) is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The graph shows the distance in miles, m, hiked from a camp in h hours.

To find: hourly interval that had the greatest rate of change

Solution:

Rate of change between two points refers to the vertical change divided by the horizontal change.

For hour 0 to hour 1:

rate of change = $\frac{2-0}{1-0}=2$

For hour 2 to hour 3:

rate of change = $\frac{4.5-3.5}{3-2}=1$

For hour 1 to hour 2:

rate of change = $\frac{3.5-2}{2-1}=1.5$

For hour 3 to hour 4:

rate of change = $\frac{5-4.5}{4-3}=0.5$

So, rate of change is greatest in interval: hour 0 to hour 1

Answer from: Quest

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
