#2 Jamal is an apprentice on a boat on Long Island Sound. He is helping the captain collect samples of marine life for an environmental study, and the captain is teaching him about nautical navigation.
When the boat leaves the environmental station, it will return to its home port 9 nautical miles away.
If
the boat maintains a constant speed of 15 knots (nautical miles per hour), how many minutes will the
trip take?

The trip will take 36 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

The boat maintains a constant speed of 15 knots (nautical miles per hour). How many minutes it will take to return to its home port 9 nautical miles away?

So in 60 minutes, 15 nautical miles. How many minutes for 9 nautical miles?

60 minutes - 15 nautical miles

x minutes - 9 nautical miles

The trip will take 36 minutes.

it could 14.28 but if its not that one then it has to be the 17 one. hope this ! : )

step-by-step explanation:

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.
