easy!

Isaac keeps track of the miles per gallon his car gets per week. He has accumulated the following data: (1, 24), (2, 24.48), (3, 24.97), (4, 25.47) What is the common difference or ratio? The common difference is 0.48. The common difference is 0.50. The common ratio is 0.98. The common ratio is 1.02. i think it is a!

OpenStudy (shamil98):

difference means subtraction. 24.48-24 = 0.48 24.97-24.48 = 0.49 So you can cancel out option A .

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

I know it is not c or d...so its b?

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

c and d have multiplication right?

OpenStudy (shamil98):

Ratio is division. it isn't b.

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

oh oops lol...

OpenStudy (shamil98):

Easy

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

lol now its def c...

OpenStudy (shamil98):

no -_-

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

but 24/.98= 24.48 doesn't it?

OpenStudy (shamil98):

24 x 1.02 = 24.48 24.48 x 1.02 = 24.97 24.97 x 1.02 = 25.47

OpenStudy (shamil98):

why would you do 24/.98

OpenStudy (shamil98):

ratios man 24.48/24 = 1.02

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

oh!!!

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

K thanks!

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

let me jot that down....

OpenStudy (shamil98):
