A whale was diving at a rate of 2 meters per second. How long did it take for the whale to get from the surface of the ocean to an elevation of -12 meters at that rate? What equation matches this situation

d = 435.5 m below the surface

Step-by-step explanation:

The time t is 4 minutes. You must convert this to seconds as the rate traveled is given as 1.8 m/s.

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).
