PLEASE HELP ME ‼️

Answer 1

We know that the value of x, the independent variable, is 0 at the x-intercept. In this case, time is the independent variable as distance traveled is dependent on it. Therefore, when time is equals to 0, we find that the distance was 50 miles. If the distance is being measured from the bridge, and the train is at the station at time = 0, then the train station is 50 miles from the bridge.
