1. You can use the intercepts to graph the line. The graph of 2x + 3y = 12 crosses the x-axis at (6, 0), so its x-intercept is 6. The graph of 2x + 3y = 12 crosses the y-axis at (0, 4), so its y-intercept is 4.
We see that the only complete time-distance pair indicates that she walked 6.4 miles in 2 hours. If she walked at a constant speed, we can conclude that girl walked 3.2 miles in 1 hour. Using this speed, we can find the remaining values in the table. The easier entry to complete is finding out how far she walked in 5 hours: 5 hours⋅3.2 miles/hour=16 miles. To find out how long it took to walk 8 hours we can either notice that 8 is half of 16, so it took half the time to walk half the distance or we can divide 8 miles by 3.2 miles per hour to find that it took 2.5 hours
