The box plots show the average speeds, in miles per hour, for the race cars in two different races. Average Speeds of Cars in Race A
2 box plots. The number line goes from 120 to 170. For Race A, the whiskers range from 120 to 170, and the box ranges from 143 to 165. A line divides the box at 153. For Race B, the whiskers range from 125 to 165, and the box ranges from 140 to 150. A line divides the box at 145.
Average Speeds of Cars in Race B

Which correctly describes the consistency of the speeds of the cars in the two races?

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.

you ignore the remainder, therefore the answer is y = x+2

step-by-step explanation:

you have to divide the denominator by the numerator. you can use synthetic division or long division.

[-5] .     1 .     7 .     11

x + 2 + 1/x+5
