Question

Amir drove from Jerusalem to the lowest place on Earth, the Dead Sea.

Answer 1

Considering the linear function described, Amir's altitude at the beginning of the drive was of 440 meters.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

• m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

• b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Researching this problem on the internet and looking at the graph, we have that when x = 0, y = 440, that is, the y-intercept is of 400. From the bullet points, the y-intercept is the initial value, hence Amir's altitude at the beginning of the drive was of 440 meters.
