Respuesta :

Answer:

The distance traveled between 10 minutes and 15 minutes is increasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob is going on a road trip across the country. He covers 10 miles in 15 minutes.

Therefore, between the 10 minutes and 15 minutes, Jacob was in motion and if he covers 10 miles in 15 minutes with a constant speed, then Jacob will cover [tex]\frac{10}{15} \times (15 - 10) =  3.33[/tex] miles in that period.

So, the distance traveled between 10 minutes and 15 minutes is increasing.
