\bf \textit{arc's length}\\\\
s=\cfrac{\theta \pi r}{180}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle\ in\\
\qquad degrees\\
------\\
r=6\\
s=10
\end{cases}\implies 10=\cfrac{\theta \pi 6}{180}\implies \cfrac{180\cdot 10}{6\pi }=\theta 
\\\\\\
\cfrac{300}{\pi }=\theta \implies 95.49^o\approx \theta

now, the circle of the clock has 360°, if we divide it by 60(minutes), we get 360/60, just 6° for each minute.

now, if there are 6° in 1 minute, how many minutes in 95.49°?

well, just 95.49/6 or about 15.92 minutes, I take it you can round it up to 16 minutes.

so 16 minutes since noon, so is about 12:16, about time get the silverware for lunch.

Answer:

As "x" increases "y" *decreases*

y as a function of x is not *constant*

Therefore the function is *nonlinear*

For all values of x, the function value y *≥* 0.

The y intercept of the graph is *8*

x=1 function value of y is *5*
