Hey!
If A, B, C are representing numbers then they are not the variables. The variables are x and y.
a and b are coefficients and c is a constant.
Hope this helps!

Hello!

A variable is a letter that represents an unknown number.

Examples of Variables : x, y, a, z, b, L

Examples of Constants (numbers) : 1, 20, 5.5, $\pi$

Every single character in this equation is a variable, so therefore A, x, b, y, and c are the variables in this equation.

I hope this helps!

A person leaves her camp at 7:00 a.m. to hike back to her car. The distance from the car in kilometers y after x hours of hiking

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The x axis in the function represents, the number of hours after 7:00 A.M. , the person reaches her car. The person reaches the car at 1:00 P.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x axis denotes the no. of hours and and the y axis denotes the distance from the car.

X Intercept is a point where the line intersects the X axis, we can easily notice the fact that at that point, y=0 ie. The person has reached his/her respective car.

The line intersects x at 6.

Therefore, a total of 6 hours are taken from the beginning of the hike.

Thus, the person reaches the car at 1:00 P.M.
