Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Taking the readings from the graph</u>
- <u>x .... y</u>
- 0 .... 2
- 2 .... 6
- 4 .... 10
- 6 .... 14
<u>Rate of change for the given line is:</u>
- (6 - 2)/2 = 4/2 = 2
- y- intercept is 2
<u>Equation for the line is:</u>
<u>For the point (40, 76) we can verify with the equation:</u>
The point (40, 76) is close the line but the line doesn't pass through it.
2 miles equals 2 x1760 = 3520 yards.
