Answer:
<em>The value 60 represents the speed of the vehicle the counselor is driving.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Linear Function</u>
The linear relationship between two variables d and t can be written in the form
Where m is the slope (or rate of change of d with respect to t) and b is the y-intercept or the point where the graph of the line crosses the y-axis
The function provided in our problem is
Where d is the distance in miles the counselor still needs to drive after t hours. Rearranging the expression:
Comparing with the general form of the line we can say m=-60, b=130. The value of -60 is the slope or the rate of change of d with respect to t. Since we are dealing with d as a function of time, that value represents the speed of the vehicle the counselor is driving. It's negative because the distance left to drive decreases as the time increases
Answer: 2450 min or 40hr and 50 min
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a proportion to set up this equation.
We cross muliply so get our equation.
It took Mike 2450 min to read 1225 pages. We can also use a proportion to write this in hours
