Ben is planning to visit his friend Albert who is suffering from colds and headache. Ben uses his car to travel to Albert's house. The initial speed of Ben's car is 20 mph, then constantly increasing one-fourth of its preceding speed. 1. If the constant increase of its speed is done every 10 minutes, what will be the speed of his car for the first 30 minutes? 2. Construct a table of values which shows the relationship between the speed of the car for the first hour if the constant increase is of the preceding speed for every 20 minutes. 3. What is the common ratio obtained by the sequence based from the table of values?
