The graph below shows the distances, in miles, that a dragonfly can travel in a certain number of hour. Based on the graph, what

is the dependent variable, the equation relating the two variables, and how far will the dragonfly travel in 24 hours if it continues to fly at the same speed?

The graph provides distance as a linear function of time.
The y-intercept is zero.

The line passes through (0,0) and (6,120).
Calculate the slope.
m = (120 - 0)/(6 - 0) = 20

The equation of the line is
d = 20t
where
t = time, hours
d =  distance, miles

Therefore distance is the dependent variable.
When t = 24 hours, the distance is 20*24 = 480 miles.

Answers:
(a) Distance is the dependent variable
(b)The equation relating the two variables is
    d = 20t
    where
    t = time, hours
    d = distance, miles
(c) In 24 hours, the dragonfly will travel 480 miles.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the form:

f (x) = m*x + b   or  y=m*x + b

where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the Y axis.

The slope m measures the inclination of the line with respect to the abscissa axis, that is, the x axis.  According to the value of the slope m, the linear function can be increasing if m> 0, decreasing if m <0 or constant if m = 0.

You know that the number of sea turtle deaths per year is modeled by f(x) = 13.42x + 109.118.   Then the value of the slope is 13.42. In this scenario, the slope indicates that the number of deaths of sea turtles grows in a proportion of 13.42 with respect to the pollution index of the bay.
