We write the cinematic equation for each cyclist.
 We have then:
 Cyclist A:
 ra = v * t
 Cyclist B:
 
rb = - (v-10) * t
 After 4 hours we have:
 ra-rb = 4v - (-4 (v-10))
 96 = 4v - (-4 (v-10))
 Rewriting:
 96 = 4v + 4 (v-10)
 96 = 4v + 4v - 40
 96 = 8v - 40
 v = (96 + 40) / (8)
 v = 17 mph
 Cyclist A: v = 17mph
 Cyclist B: v-10 = 17-10 = 7mhp
 Answer:
 
the rate of each cyclist is:
 
Cyclist A: v = 17mph
 
Cyclist B: v-10 = 7mhp

Answer:

a. (0, -2)

b. (1, -2)

c. (2, -2)

d. (3, -2)

e. (4, -2)

f. The y-value of the coordinate is always -2. The x-value of the coordinate is always what x is stated to equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the linear equation y = -2 doesn't have a slope, it will be shown as a continuous horizontal line along, touching the y-axis at it's -2 unit.

Same could be said with the various x-equations, except they will be shown as continuous vertical lines.
