You had a lot of spare time this summer because of quarantine, so you and four family members took a 5-day white-water rafting and hiking trip. During your 5-day trip, 2 days were spent rafting. If the rafting trip covered a distance of 60 miles and you spent 8 hours rafting each day, how many miles did you raft each hour?

3.75 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of days spent rafting = 2 days total distance covered during rafting = 60 miles

Time spent rafting per day = 8 hours

Number of miles raft per hour:

Total number of raft hours over the 2 days = (8 * 2) = 16 hours

Total raft distance over the 2 days = 60 miles

Raft miles per hour :

Total raft distance / total number of raft hours

60 miles / 16 hours

= 3.75 miles per hour

is there any attachment? what are the equations?

  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).
