Explanation:
Since we have given that
Speed at which Eugene walked all the way to school = 3 mph
After realizing that she forgot her math book, she ran back
Speed at which Eugene walked back to her house = 7 mph
Let the distance between her house and her school be x
According to question,
Hence,
The answer is it is yes, it is sometimes true, y can =0
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
y = (-2/5)x + 1
By inspection of the equation, the slope of the line is -2/5 and the y-intercept is 1.
Therefore, we can immediately discount option B and D, as their y-intercepts are NOT 1.
Find the point where the line crosses the x-axis by setting the equation to 0 and solving for x:
0 = (-2/5)x + 1
⇒ -1 = (-2/5)x
⇒ -5 = -2x
⇒ x = 5/2
Therefore, the line of the function intersects the x-axis at x = 5/2 = 2.5
From inspection of the graphs, the line in option A intersects the x-axis at 2.5. Therefore, this is the correct graph.
