Question

Yesterday, Selma read 75 pages of her book. If she reads at a pace of 2 pages per minute today, which table shows only viable

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Her reading pace is 2 pages per min:

2 pages = 1 min

1 page = 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5 min

x pages = 0.5x mins

Find the total number of pages she has read in x min:

Number of pages read = y

y = 75 + 0.5x

Answer: y = 75 + 0.5x

Answer 2

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the below image attached with this question.

It is given that yesterday Selma read 75 pages of her book and she reads at a pace of 2 pages per minute today. It means

Initial value = 75

Slope = 2

She has read, y, after x minutes have elapsed.

The slope intercept form of a line is

$y=mx+b$

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

$y=2x+75$

At x=0,

$y=2(0)+75=75$

At x=11,

$y=2(11)+75=97$

At x=20.25,

$y=2(20.25)+75=115.5$

At x=58,

$y=2(58)+75=191$

Table of values

x            y

0          75

11           97

20.25    115.5

58          191

Therefore, the correct option is D.
