Notice that the y-intercept is the point on the graph where x=0 and y equals some value (determined by the equation where x = 0).

In this equation, the y-intercept would be where t = 0. Since t represents a year, the y-intercept represents the value of the coin in year 0, or when it was purchased. The value of the coin in this year 0 is determined by inserting 0 into our equation for t. Doing this, we find that the value of the coin in year 0 is 6. This fact correlates to answer D, "When it was purchased (year 0), the coin was worth $6"

Fran swims at a speed of 2.8 mph in still water. The Lazy River flows at a speed of 0.8 mph. How long will it take Fran to swim

Elis [28]

Answer:

1.49 hrs or 1 hr and 30 minutes approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

if fran go 2.8m up then the river flow at a rate of 0.8m; the since we are taking the speed of fran and river to be constant. the ratio between their speed will always remain constant. that is if 0.8/2.8 = 0.286≈ this will be always constant.

so if he go up 4m then the horizontal length has to be 1.143 because 1.143/4 = 0.286.

now we find the distance between frans initial positon and final position. to find it we use pythagoras theorem.

$\sqrt{(4^2 + 1.143^2)} =4.160 miles$

to find the time divide distance traveled by speed;

4.160/2.8 = 1.49 hrs
