What is the next number in this sequence: 8, 27, 64, 125 ?
Find the next 2 numbers in this sequence: 33, 46, 72, 111
The amount of water inside of a leaky boat is measured periodically after the boat has been in the water in different periods of time and are found to have a linear relationship. The results are given in the following chart:
Time in water (mins) | Amount of water in the boat (gal) |
---|---|
0 | 0 |
6 | 4.8 |
19 | 15.2 |
28 | 22.4 |
Using the method of linear extrapolation based on the data from the table, how much water would you expect to be in the boat after minutes?
