a) 15, 25, 35, 45, 55, ...
b) 150, 300, 450, 600, 750, ...
c) 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, ...
d) 25, 175, 325, 475, 625, ...

Answer 1

The correct sequence that describes the distances of the ball from you at intervals of one-tenth of a second is option (c) 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, ....

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct sequence that describes the distances of the ball from you at intervals of one-tenth of a second is option (c) 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, ...

This sequence increases by 15 meters each time.

Each term in the sequence represents the distance of the ball from you after an increment of 0.1 seconds.

For example, the second term represents the distance after 0.2 seconds, the third term represents the distance after 0.3 seconds, and so on.
