Nancy received a piggy bank containing $10.00 and adds an additional $1.00 per week. How much money is in her piggy bank after x weeks?
\n" ); document.write( "Value in x weeks = 10 + x
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "V(x) = 10 + x
\n" ); document.write( "========================= \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "problem 2
\n" ); document.write( "if you use 300 gallons of gas in 4.8 hours, then find the rate of change ($gallons/hour)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "rate = (# of gallons)/(# of hours) = 300/4.8 = 62.5 gal/hr
\n" ); document.write( "===========================================================
