Question

Bus A travels according to the function y = 125/2x where y is distance traveled in miles and x is time in hours. Bus B travels according to the graph below, where the distance y is a function of time x. Which bus travels faster. we Include all necessary calculations in your final answer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bus B

Step-by-step explanation:

For both buses, the slope is the speed.

Bus A: y = 125/2 x

m = 125/2 = 62.5

Bus A travels at 62.5 mph

For Bus B, wee look at the graph.

When x = 3, y = 200.

m = 200/3 = 66.666...

Bus B travels at 66.7 mph

Answer: Bus B
