Part A: y-intercept = 12 miles
Part B: Find the average rate of change: 36 - 20/2 = 16/2 = 8 mph
This tells us that the bird can travel long distances.
Part C: 172 - 12 = 160 miles at a rate of 8 mph
160 mi ÷ 8mph = 20 hrs
Domain of function = 0 ≤ x ≤ 20
400=12.50x+50
400-50=12.50x
350=12.50x
350÷12.50=x
28=x
