Answer 1

3. Two ocean beaches are being affected by erosion. The table shows the width, in feet, of each beach at high tide measured where 1995 is represented by year 0.
Year number Western Beach width (in feet) Dunes Beach width (in feet)
0 100 25
5 90 45
10 80 70
11 78 75
12 76 80
15 70 95
4.
A. Describe the patterns shown by the erosion data measurements shown for each of the beaches in the table. Every five years western beach’s with decreases and dunes beach width increases.

B. Between which years will the beaches have approximately the same width? The 11th year was the closest to the same width.
C. Assuming these rates remain constant, what can do you get a better approximation of when the two beaches will have the same width?
