we know that f(-2) = 24, namely when x = -2, y = 24, let's see if that's true

darn!! no dice.... hmmmm wait a second.... 4 * 6 = 24, if we could just use a common factor of 4 on the function, that common factor times 6 will give us 24, let's check.

250m/s = x m/min
250m/s = x min/ 60s
250•60 = 1500
The airplane will travel 1500m per minute
B.) 10:18 and 25:45
You can simplify this.
Divide the first part by 2.
5:9.
Divide the second half by 5.
5:9.
5:9 and 5:9
There are two such numbers.
One of them is 2 + 9.5 = 11.5.
The other one is 2 - 9.5 = -7.5.
_____
If we consider "9.5 units from 2" to be 9.5 units in the positive direction, then the appropriate choice is 11.5.
I believe that the answer is c but if you wanted to make sure you could figure out the correlation on a graphing calculator.
