b) How fast was the boat going 1 minute after letting off the gas?
c) How fast will it be going 15 minutes after letting off the gas?
d) How long does it take to cut the boats original 40km/h speed in half?
Im having trouble figuring out the formula needed to determine the answers. Any help would be great. Thanks
