Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

D(t) = 3260 - 55t

The function that shows their distance from home as a function of time shows that they started 3260 miles from home and are driving at 55 miles per hour.

part a:

D(12) = 3260  55(12)

D(12) = 3260 - 660

D(12) = 2600

Interpretation: After 12 hours of driving home, they are 2600 miles from home.

part b:

D(t) = 2490

3260 - 55t = 2490

-55t = -770

t = 14

Interpretation: When they are 2490 miles from home, they have driven for 14 hours.
