Zach read a book for 10 minutes every weekend in the first month, 20 minutes in the second month, 40 minutes in the third month,

and 80 minutes in the fourth month. Victoria read a book for 35 minutes every weekend in the first month, 50 minutes in the second month, 65 minutes in the third month, and 80 minutes in the fourth month. Which statement best describes the methods used by Zach and Victoria to increase the time they spent reading a book? (1 point)

Answer:

B) Victoria's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zach reading time written in sequence form is given as:

  • 10,20,40,80,...
  • Each succeeding term is a product of the previous term by 2

Victoria reading time written in sequence form is given as

  • 35,50,65,80...
  • Each succeeding term is an addition of 15 Minutes to the previous term.

The statement that best describes the methods used by Zach and Victoria to increase the time they spent reading a book is therefore:

B) Victoria's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every month.

You are asked to do this problem by graphing, which would be hard to do over the Internet unless you can do your drawing on paper and share the resulting image by uploading it to Brainly.

If this were homework or a test, you'd get full credit only if you follow the directions given.

If <span>The points(0,2) and (4,-10) lie on the same line, their slope is m = (2+10)/(-4), or   m =-3.  Thus, the equation of this line is y-2 = -3x, or y = -3x + 2.

If </span><span>points (-5,-3) and (2,11) lie on another line, the slope of this line is:

m = 14/7 = 2.  Thus, the equation of the line is y-11 = 2(x-2), or y = 11+2x -4, or y = 2x + 7.

Where do the 2 lines intersect?  Set the 2 equations equal to one another and solve for x:

</span>y = -3x + 2 = y = 2x + 7.  Then 5x = 5, and x=1.

Subst. 1 for x in y = 2x + 7, we get y = 2(1) + 7 = 9.

That results in the point of intersection (2,9).

Doing this problem by graphing, on a calculator, produces a different result:  (-1,5), which matches D.

I'd suggest you find and graph both lines yourself to verify this.  If you want, see whether you can find the mistake in my calculations.
